you're missing the point about how impressive it is that dewease can win at port WITHOUT running the top. he's the only guy that can do it. '23 was a throw away year because of what happened with the 69k. if i'm using this site right...his worse finish at port in '22 was 9th with 2 wins...
http://sprintcarratings.com/DriverTrackSeries.aspx?DriverID=103
not a bad year for somebody who doesn't run there every week. he had 2 wins in '21 with 2nd place finishes in the 50 and the first night of the nittany showdown.

I like Lance and think he the best driver in central PA ever.
See all his wins and all his big wins in PA...no one even comes close.
However, his fun is mostly done at Port. I am not saying he can't win...I am saying it would have to be a night when there is a low groove and that doesn't happen very often at the Port.

You're both correct. Port is usually one dominant lane around the outside. You can pick a corner and run the bottom but to do it lap after lap most nights, especially on open track, is all but impossible if you want a chance to win. Since they reconfigured the corners and added banking to the top side, it's just too slow. You gotta scrub off so much speed. That said, Lance has won a few races in the past 3 years running the middle and bottom. No one else has done better at it than he has since they changed the track. So Port is definitely not in his wheelhouse like it was previously but he can still pull it off sometimes and definitely does it better than anyone else.

Losing Davey Brown Sr. Is going to be an uphill struggle for Lance. The 39m will be the car to beat in central pa next year. Whomever is driving the 69k DBSR setups are not on the hi side of the track. Nobody runs 3 and 4 better than LD at the groove. In fact, he has proven over his many yrs, get the car to hug the rail and you usually go forward.

I like Lance, but I don't see him winning a lot at Port going forward unless they have a low groove.
His 50 record speaks volumes for what he was able to accomplish with some really good teams.

Over the last year and a half in the 69k he didn't win as much as he used to as well. NO low groove most nights.

Assuming Fred is your #2, interested to why you put Lance ahead of him. I'd have to really think about it tbh. They're both 1 and 1A for me.

5 National open wins
7 Tusky wins
How many do Rahmer and Kauffman have combined? It just a question.
Lance also has a lot of other big wins in central PA.

What a F&%$#G hater!
Kick a guy when he's down?

I must think that not qualifying when it counts is a lack of being prepared for the end result, MONEY! Something missing there...
Ascot was the greatest of all time..
West Capital wasn't half bad either..
Life is good...

Lance got to know them through his son driving a 600cc Brent Shearer also drives one and they were packed beside each other during the 50. No snake move here Billy was already out of the car.
