They probaly thought there wasn't enough cars for a C main so they had no shot of wining anything and went home.

Not sure why they venture east of Eldora. Historically they struggle in Pa (when the show up..except for Gravel's win last year) and seldom make the tow to the Empire state.

You are correct Gravel did win in PA, also won at Eldora last year and won at Lebanon Valley in Ny last year with a Roth as well! Still can't believe a Roth Got rid of the young Lad!

I heard Roth and Dollansky have already parted ways, Roth really messed up by letting Gravel go.

You are correct Roth and Dollansky have already split. Gravel was a great driver in the Roth car I can't understand either why they would let that kid go.

Pretty sure it's Sonny Kratzer who's been with Roth off and on over the years.

One of Roth's former drivers told me he is like the George Stienbrenner of sprint cars.

At the end of the day still hate seeing a car leave the tour. A great example of chemistry is Lasoski in the Big Game car. He has been running up front in that machine since the get go. Gravel hasnt won yet but they have been right around 10th every night out. Look at Chad & Brian Kemenah. They are gaining momentum and there is a lot of money to be won for the next 4 months.

Roth is a pillar of support for sprint cars. I would not be surprized if TK will be back in a Roth car. TK won a WOO race at Tulare in a Roth car.
