If half the night races this year are as good as the weekend's day races at Lincoln and Port, it's gonna be a great year!
Where was Marks ?
WoO results from Sunday at Volusia show DD 23rd, PPM 25th, Macri 26th - hell of a tow from Port at 5:30-ish - and Marks 27th.

I've seen some very good daytime races. However, that doesn't "debunk the myth" about daytime races for me. The percentage of good daytime races to bad is much lower than at night---from my own personal observation. JMO

The 2 daytime races in PA over the weekend were much better than the 2 in Florida last night. But, day races at 54 degrees is much different track conditions than it would be in May/jun/july/august at 88-95 degrees for sure. I'm glad they got all 4 in this weekend between PA and WoO as March is notroiuos for the "r" word or postpone for cold.

A couple of my top races happened during a daytime makeup race. Both at Jackson motorplex. Both during the summer.

He posted he was out of the old Hoosiers and wasn't buying more to race until the new ones became available this week.

I definitely believe promoters should consider daytime shows in Spring and Fall
More favorable conditionss with temp and moisture, think a lot of fans would like it too

2 great races for sure. 2 local shows in central PA with much better racing than the outlaws 2 nights in FL. Imagine that. It just goes to show you that big names and big money teams doesn't mean better racing. Go out and support your local shows wherever they may be.

I say the same for Knoxville all of the time. Obviously the WoO is a nice bonus but I'm happy as a pig in a puddle every time I pull into town for the weekly show.

The Sunday Volusia race was the make-up for the rain-out in February- DD, PPM, Macri, and Marks all qualified for the feature in February.
