We all know Paul Silva's little wheel holder is an anomaly so move along, there's nothing to flex here.

Oh really, he came from the 6th row outside on a juiced up hammer down track to win it tonight. 3 years in a row Ironman 55 champ. He passed 32 Sprint Cars in 85 laps on two completly different surfaces for $37,000 this weekend at I-55 He's just that damn good....

Yes, yes he did. It proves that a great driver in a great car with a great crew chief can do great things. That doesn't change the fact that Friday night's passing clinic was performed on a dry, slick track.
Hoshead's own 'God's gift to track preperation' expert has proclaimed that to be impossible. He 'knows' that the track has to be tacky, fast and follow the leader in order to be a good race. He probably didn't care for all that slippin' and slidin' on an ice rink that Larson did Friday to win from 21st.

Kyle Larson- excellent racer, excellent car, excellent crew chief equals excellent results. I don't believe anyone is disputing that. Your expertise in track prep is not held to that same regard.... Just sayin'.
Before, you've shared your vast expertise about track prep over and over. You've said that the track had to be tacky and fast for follow the leader racing the whole night in order to be good. You've said you don't like that 'slippin' and slidin' on an ice skating rink'track prep the Outlaws do, and said that leads to poor racing. And yet, on Friday, Larson proved you wrong about track prep. Were you wrong before, or are you wrong now?

It has been for 2 of the 9 times he's faced the WoO this year. Definately all systems go with Kyle, Paul and the 57 team this weekend, very impressive for sure.

Everybody wins when the races are good. Kyle is one of the best be it HL or WOO and starting midpack just adds to the story. We all know the Knoxville Nationals format rewards consisentcy and a flat tire or engine failure can put you in the D main

And now you're saying that Friday night's win by Larson was very boring because the track was slip and slide. At least try to be consistent when you are wrong.
