Wow, lots of saltiness from the Outlaw fanboys on here. Not surprising, given all the crying they did about competition over the offseason.

The 9 podium spots were filled by 5 guys {Peck aside} who would have been most any night last season. Only difference is that  now three of them are Ascoc Oates with the HL. Courtney had potential as an AS, Aubrey had potential as a traveller and Sweet is Sweet.  It's much the same guys winning just they are branded differently now. 

In my opinion this is going to work out just like the Lincoln - Port Royal thing does. Every now and then one track gets more cars or more good cars than the other. The fans of that track brag about how their track's field is stronger than the other. Eventually a few teams figure out that they could be making more money at the other track and it evens out. My guess is that with as many teams as have said they are going to follow HL eventually some will decide that they could be making more money with the WOO and it will even out some. If Sweet and Rico start winning most of the HL races that could happen sooner than later.

If the outlaws are so much better they should have swept the podium each night.  But that didn't happen.

This just in the outlaws are having a hard time beating those two.

So the Outlaws go 2 for 4 in features and their top guy wins the Big Gator. Wow what a shite group. All Stars lite if you ask me. 

With the big money is on the line, the low rollers get sent to the kiddie table and nickel slots. 

Macri the only non Outlaw in top seven (2nd) and he is neither. He made all four shows with his lowest finish twelth I think.

Yeah the outlaw drivers just won 2 out of 4 WoO races, but I predict the High Limit drivers will win 100% of the upcoming Florida H-L races.

Not really.

Personally I really enjoyed the racung. If your a posse fan you had to be pulling for the 39 last night.  Volusia unfortunately didn't have the greatest track conditions. All the drivers made comment on how slick it was. 4eally wish I could have stuck around for the HL series at east bay. To me, Volusia showed one thing nobody has mentioned, racers want to race, they don't care if it's woo or HL. I hope the field at east bay is as full as is was at volusia. That field sure would have been lite if the HL guys stuck it to woo.

I don't care who wins either.  But if the outlaws are the best the should have taken all 4 shows, not just 2 out of 4.   Looks like the HL drivers took 2 out of 4 at Volusia as well.  So they are even with wins, the HL guys having more podiums than the outlaws during the 4 races.

I wanted to point out that the HL drivers are just as fast as the outlaws.  That is all I wanted to say.  The outlaw fans got all bent out of shape.  They think the HL is out to get them and that is totally false always was false.

Yeah the outlaws not ALLOWED to race at East Bay, even though they are not racing anywhere.  LOL the WRG really screws their drivers over again and again.  Looks like HL wins again!

Great 4 days of racing.  Headed out of Florida now for work  Great job all 40+ who gave it a go.  Congrats Gravel on the gator. Gravel and Scelzi earnng top 2 in points for the 4 days.  Gravel, Scelzi, Courtney and Schatz only drivers to top 10 all 4 races, great consistency and speed shown. Cool to see Sheldon bounce that team back after rough 3 nights mechanically. Massive crowd last night.  Great event as always.

Careful there Saphead, don't offend the big Port Royal fan by stating facts....

If you have not been to a doctor and had an official diagnosis to your condition, I will give it to you.  Please look up the word "narcissist."  You are amongst the .5-1% of the population with this condition.  We know you cannot help it, but with a little research, and self-help, you could get your condition under control.  If you don't do anything about it, you are going to continue to state opinions as facts, and will continue to start sentences with "that is all i wanted to say" before then posting another 30 times with the same, exact subject matter full of your elusive "facts."   If that is indeed all you wanted to say------you don't need to respond to this at all.  You can just research your condition.  

Just what we need.  A WoO HL recap and debate after every race all season long.  Volusia is an outlier that chews up new motors before the season really gets going.  I watched four nights of good racing with a few exciting moments without having to leave the house in February.  That is a win for the viewers.  My apologies to Chris Stepan the Modified announcer.  Chris did the pill draw at the back gate and announcing at Cedar Lake back when I was signing in to take photos.  Sorry Chris, I changed channels to USAC while he was announcing the Mods at Volusia.  
 

The pendulum is going to swing back and forth all season when WoO and HL drivers go head to head.  Nobody is questioning whether or not there is talent in both series.  HL drivers that never followed a tour will become seasoned travelers by this summer.  Meanwhile Brian Brown and Macri who aren't signed on with either had decent weekends as well.  Like I said a month ago, TV watching is going to be awesome but there will be fewer fan favorites at WoO races in some markets that HL doesn't get into.  IRA looks to be getting over this way and our neighbor has two new chassis and 410's so there is plenty of racing aside from the touring stuff that only comes around a couple times per season.

Sounds good to me!

I've been accused of being narcisstic. A title I don't want so when I learned that narcs always have to have the last word, I just stopped trying to have the last word. That simple sungle choice has made a world of difference in debates and tense comversations. Maybe we could all try that just to prove the name callers wrong 

Hmm, checking the point standings on the outlaws website shows 4 of the top 7 are outlaws, 3 are high-limit after the first 4 races.  One could say the outlaws came out on top.  Okay, who is going to see the numbers a different way.....come on, you know you want to!
