Hell, I've seen push truck races and even a wrecker rolled during the races.

But one of the worst was a 360 driver, who had to win the hot laps, took out 3 other cars in hot laps, 4 total.

Like I said fabricated. And yes it is very true! The people that go there every week know this. Fabricated.

Rocks on a dirt racing surface??  Who would ever think thats a possibility.

Hooda thunk a flat tire on the water truck would be this much fun 

Funny thing is the Strawser didn't think they had a water truck until it had flat tire.

The driver that was injured was injured by a mud clod not a rock you dumb shit.

He wouldn't know that. He doesn't go to the races. He just bitches about them.

So back to the flat tire.  Were they able to patch it or will they have to buy a new/used tire?  What kind of jack did they use?  I mean, so many unanswered questions here.

"Some people can't handle the truth."

What does that have to do with the stuff you spew , BS Trouser?

I hate like hell to agree with WingedStrawser on anything but he's right about there being a lot of rocks in the track. I've walked parts of the track in the past few weeks and seen them myself. Some of them are big enough that a rock screen would probably not be much help. He's a pompous asshole, but he's actually right this time.

You keep saying that over & over, with no proof

Your opinion does not necessarily = "truth"

I don't think anyone disagreed that there were rocks on a dirt track. I was questioning his statement that 3 drivers (who's names are so top secret that only Strawser knows them) had to take time off from racing after being hit by rocks. If some of the rocks are big enough that a rock screen won't stop them, I'm starting to wonder what they make their rock screens out of in PA?

hey Brad Strawser26, so you're the guy that was in the infield with the mic on Flo?

Lol, no, he is not.  Wrong first name.

Justin Peck absolutely had to sit out a weekend because he got hit by rocks at Port. That's a fact. There may be others. I can't believe I'm defending Strawser, but a broken clock is right twice a day.....

That Limited Late Model driver was hit by mud because the track was like you two Dimwits want it. That is a fact and you two guys should get your shit together on your story. There was a USAC driver hit by one and missed races at another track out the road and didn't someone get an arm broke there last year  by one. This shit happens and it will happen more on big fast tracks. Also were those two sprint car drivers not back at every opportuniy since? They appear to accept it as racing more than you two do. They don't do a Candyass job and maybe they are bit tougher than you. 

Well the LLM driver crashed and flipped, but yeah apparently a rock caused it. LOL Again, it was reported that Esh was hit by a MUD clod (not a rock) that same night, as the track was wet and heavy that evening. Nice try though. Are there rocks? I don't know but probably, since every track has them. They resurfaced the track a couple years ago with the best sifted red clay you can get but eventually rocks will work back up to the surface. Rest assured if it's an issue they will addresss it. They've done everything possible to make the place top notch and they never stop working to make it better. The teams, drivers and fans all appreciate that, except for 2(possibly 1?) knuckleheads on an internet forum. PS. Fantastic Tuscarora 50 last night! Great racing on an awesome track. Congrats to Logan and the 1 team, and big thanks to the 58 drivers that braved the rocks.

A bit off topic, but thats how this board rolls.  It seems to me that Justin Pecks on track performance has suffered since his time off. He was running pretty good to start the year but now appears to have dropped off the pace some. I hope the team gets their competitive mojo back soon.

No, the LLM driver was hit by mud. (a very large piece of it, I saw the photo of it) So if Esh was also hit by mud (I only speak to the one I know) that would make it two out three. Maybe couple of guys really need to get their facts straight. I am not going to say their can't be a stone on it, I have not walked it. I do know a 1b or small 2b limestone will ping pretty loudly on the aluminum grandstand but that is not a rock.

OT but I saw a flying saucer of mud almost take a guy's head off in the back stands at Knoxville.
