not bad to have a fall back source of entertainment, the track has been known to slick off in the B main on Sat, and unless Tony Stewart stops by, no additional track prep takes place after they start hot laps.
the Kville area theatres appear to be running the Simpsons...

but Rush Hour 3 opens nationwide on Friday Aug. 10th, not sure if it is scheduled there or not:

maybe Cisco and Ebert can weigh in?

Stay at home and watch the same twenty+ cars in their parade, oops, I forgot the bombers start near the front and the few fast guys pass them when there is a caution, lol. Leave the porch and get an education, Lord knows you need one. At this point in your career, you wouldn't know a good race if you fell into it, apparently. Knoxville, where they invert all ten in the heat races, Take It Easy.....
PS The Bourne Ultimatem is the best of the bunch, check it out and get someone to help you with the plot....
PPS If Jackie and Chris are as funny as they were in the first two, this is a can't miss flick, even if you're tied to the porch......

Not many cautions on Friday evening............Montieth (a non-WoO feature winner and bomber in your eyes??) from 21st to 3rd, Rahmer from 20th to 4th...........Shaffer won from 10th, Krietz 2nd from 8th...........all that for $15.00........not bad.
All of these cars mentioned above, WoO wins or not, passed at least 6 other WoO feature winners on their journey to the front.
Two of the heat races at WG on Friday had at least 5 cars in them that had WoO wins..............not bad.
48 cars at Port on Saturday for a $30,000.00 to win race, pass for the win by a low buck/non-WoO feature winner on Hodnett with 3 to go in a 50 lap race............not bad. One of the few places you'll still see a 50 lap sprint car race.
Maybe you can come down to PA and edumacate me on what a good race is Mikey............we all know you're the sage. <rolling eyes>
I love to watch the circus, but the racing in PA will suffice just fine this summer after spending my racing travel budget on sending my daughter to Europe this summer.
Does it hurt to be as miserable as you are?? Enjoy the races in Canada.

inverting a heat race...now there a POSSE concept if i ever heard one - thanks for reminding everyone that we do it every week...too bad the circus doesn't get it.
back to your movie night misery...too bad you are not allowed to go to the races!
and btw: horse tracks are the slowest half miles on the planet...enjoy the irony

If I'm not mistaken Drak, Port's 50-lapper had a mandatory fuel stop at the halfway point... so it was essentially two 25-lap races? Either way, good to see the Flyin' Fireman pick up the win. I'll be cheering him on out here in the Hawkeye State!

Parity is the good word in PA this year and that's great. It sure makes the racing better, doesn't it. No local W of O big buck teams staying home to beat up on the rest anymore in PA is the best thing to happen to your racing in years, wouldn't you agree? Enjoy, Take It Easy....
PS Drak, please explain to your buddy that inverting a heat race is even done these days (as it always has) with the travelling group, lol.....

boy it seems you are in luck! you rember the "keystone cops" old silent films? you know, the ones about the bumbling pa cops who crash into each other and basically can't hit their own asses. well the theater in k-ville is playing a movie based on that. it is called the "keystone racers". so head on into town and take in the movie. you will feel right at home.

Correct Chilly, we all know that the fuel cells of today can't do it on one fill-up. New tire or wing............to the rear. Great to see Jimmy Nace in V-lane.
So now it's parity Mikey............they're not bombers anymore?? I hear the reverse beeper again!! LMAO.

25 different 410 feature winners and 75 different 410 drivers have recorded a top ten finished in central PA this year. If our locals are bombers, what do you call the rest of the country? Go Brian!

71fan - answer: the rest of the country are porch racers who are too slow to even tow to PA...just like half the WoO who only collect tow money at the pay out booth as the rack up another DNQ on Posse Soil.

After watching WOOOO on MSPN on Sunday, I'd say they seem to have the lock on crashing. Especially car 35 who even when not actually crashing, is an accident waiting to happen as I witnessed at THE GROVE a few weeks ago.

Thanks for confirming the PARITY issue Clint, I've said for years and you can confirm this if you like coz' you've heard it often. The big dogs start 12th and they pass a half dozen bombers or more to get their wins, you remember those days. With all the big $$$$$$$ gone, things have finally equalized around your parts and you benefit from this on a weakly basis, smile you're lucky, right, lol? Take It Easy......

Wow- Since PA cars are bombers, why didn't someone from Ohio get off their butt, tow to Port Royal and cherry pick the 30K. Last I checked Port was not "the only track the Posse can win on". I must be a moron, because I'm sure 30k will cover the diesel bill from just about anywhere. Oh wait, every good car had to make sure to get their tow money frokm the circus. I guess 20th in WoO points pays more than the Dream Extreme did.
