This video pisses me off! The Dirt Track at Lowes produced a terrible race surface and then exacerbated the problem by pushing the tires out towards track.
Is The Dirt Track at Lowes an obstacle course or is it a race track? The reason the drivers are trying to run the infield is because the track is shit!
This isn't a special event associated with NASCAR central, it's an embarrassment. An embarrassment that keeps happening, year after year after year. This isn't an anomaly!
Track prep isn't a sprinkle of water, its a science that requires careful planning and execution. This track doesn't deserve this event. Its time to fire them!
When are the race tracks and sanctioning bodies going to do something about the tire problem? How many race cars need to be destroyed before they finally take notice? How many drivers need to be injured before they seek an alternative?
Maybe the drivers need to start a union, so we can unite and combat some of this nonsense!?!

The track at Charlotte has always been a 100 foot wide pile of junk.
They need to put 20 more degrees of banking in the turns ,and move the infield out 30 feet in the turns.
Otherwise no passing,no action,no fun and the ruts last night were insainly stupid.(they know what cars and how many are going to be there,so prep off and on all night.)
If you saw the mod flip on the back straight away,then you saw him almost get BBQ .
Teribble rookie mistake on the safety crews part,and then the reactions from the safety crew was horrible.
(you should always make sure the area is safe.If you see fuel pouring out dilude it quikly and talk to driver,and get more help ASAP!!!)
I hope they don't have any bad crashes this weekend.

They recently had a huge monster truck event there and I think those rally cars were there a few months ago. AKA they had a bunch of events there that tear up the racing surface.
I always thought it would be neat to have a local championship event there a week or two before the World Finals came to town. Let the locals have fun on the big stage. And at the same time, help track officials practice for when the big show comes to town.
