We need to hang out some time If there is no cushion, they might as well get a real job.

Yo minthess, can't believe I haven't posted this - Larson running Lernerville Silver Cup in 2013 (4 yeara ago, wow!). Goes from 22nd to 2nd. Uses multiple lines but when he got in clean air really pounded the cush to make up distance. Also nice slider to get Sammy coming to white flag.
Wonder if he'll swing through Silver Cup again this year since it's on a Tuesday. Paul Silva will be at KR with Rico so maybe he comes East a little bit and meets Kyle to run Lville.

Watch more non-wing racing, it's Indiana Sprint Week, you want to see passing, slide jobs and two or more grooves it's the place to be. SpeedShift TV is the answer, not sure about Terre Haute on Wed. but Bloomington on Friday will be a GREAT show. When Hall of Famer Dave Darland is 3 wide coming to the Checkers for 6th as he was on Saturday night you know how good it can be. Gas City is tonight and people love the place although I was never that big a fan because of the couple of shows I caught there (dust related)..

When I went to Bloomington last month for their Indiana Midget Week show last month, the track was terrible. Huggy pole and if you moved off the bottom, you did so at your own peril. I was really dissappointed. Thankfully the next night at Lawrenceburg, the IMW race was probably the best race I have ever seen in 45+ years of going to the races, in any division. I hope Bloomington has a better surface for whoever is attending this Friday.

I am surprised to hear that about Bloomington, been there at least a dozen times over the years and never seen that. I will say it's been more than a decade since I have been there but if Mike still has the place it should be good, NEVER seen a bad USAC show there....

Like any track, Lernerville is tremendous with a cushion. I am envious of the folks that are perfectly happy with close racing even if its tiptoeing with the wing back over the fuel cell. I am hard to please:)
Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Thanks Chilly, I was looking forward to buying the PPV again but will have to think about it now. It works out to $33 Canadian which I don't care about but I do hear it if I complain about the track to the better half, lol....By the way, Mike Miles was GREAT, he let me put up a ladder in the Grandstand at the far end to shoot them coiming out of turn 2, heck he even lent me the ladder. Saw a bunch of good races there and will never forget the night Sammy won a W of O Feature and then came right back and won a W of O rain-out Feature minutes later at Steve's hometown track, oops....
