Lucky for you most people think that the track is shitty and the racing so poor or they would not have had those single seats left.

You're joking, right?
Place was packed, especially the infield....

Let me guess you're a real country boy with a fishing hook on his hat? If you have a girl, (big if..) I guarantee she cheats on you.

Amazing how much importance some people place on "hat style".....

WG tried making the Natty Open 3 nights but attendance was a disaster the opening night so they went back to 2. I don't know why any shows need to be 3 nights other than events like Knoxville that have split fields but Port seems to be doing well with the 3 night show. 50-50 was $2700 the 1st night, $7300 the 2nd night and over $13,000 last night. Pretty good indicator that they were well attended.

50/50.... brings up a question I was wondering about:
I was in Section I..... NO 50/50 ladies came around. Is that a "family friendly" section or something like that?

Nah, once the stands start to fill up, you don't see the 50/50 girls very often as it gets too busy. If you want tickets walk out the old main entrance and head up towards the new ticket booth. At the main intersection on the left, you'll see a little wooden booth where someone sells all the colors and you can pick up any amount of tickets you want.
This is only during the fair though.

It's hard for someone from mid America to understand why fans in PA would dislike WG or PR. We have a lot of 3/8 and 1/4 here and precious few big tracks. The surface at PR appears to get slicker of the two but that is what produces exciting racing. Obviously nobody likes a track that rubbers down into one lane with no passing or side by side racing but I'm not seeing that when I watch PA races. You have it pretty good back there regardless of which is your favorite.

correct...
I actually prefer the smaller tracks, gonna miss Grandview
Only one (or 2?) people here are constantly complaining about Port
The rest of us appreciate what we have! :)

"Fans in PA" = 1 buffoon with 2 screen names. Port is mostly loved by the PA faithful.
Williams Grove has been the big kid on the block for a long time and as such has the haters but it's still a fine track when it wants to be.

No one mentioned Winged Speed. You did. Hm....Maybe he's the one of Facebook spouting about a certain speedway in your exact writing style?

You are correct ;) sort of... He didn't say you have two screen names. He said some buffon had two screen names and you volunteered to be that buffoon, I guess. Congrdulations. Here's your prize. :)

To be fair, Brown is good on big tracks and he has a solid record at Knoxville. I think most of us here (and some among us, twice ;) ) would agree that he's in the top 24 list of drivers that are capable of winning the Nationals next year.

Changing the subject.... what would be the results, if Brown decided to spend a season in PA with a good PA team?

I think the only thing that helps Brown is to spend a year on the road with the Outlaws. No offense to the Posse, but the level of competition is higher in the WoO, more tracks and just the general grind of following an 80 or 90 race tour. Spending time in PA would help but he already runs 70 nights, many with the WoO and the All-Stars.
