With Rico starting on pole tough to beat but well deserved. Just my opinion and the big 1/2 mile is the sprint car capitol of the world and love the racing but it is too big for the Pro Sprints but I know this is their only track and it has been a good learning experience for younger drivers, When you see the action that WOO and HL generate on 1/4 mile and even shorter tracks a good equalizer. Usually same 6 are at top but non stop action. Good for Knoxville when the HL guys are able to be part of a weekly show. $6K to win has to be one of best paying weekly shows. Rico is probably the best liked 410 driver in any series. Larson brings spectators but his sucess is not always what some want as He is that good. I like them all but having to pass cars to win is always better.April races in Iowa are challenging .

Did Rico personally thank Strawser in victory lane for his support?

Nope, but Rico has 2 wins and how this year! Where has the guy been that just switched from ford to chevy? Looks like they better get a handle on that car.

Madman seemed to have something for Rico in the early laps but just kind of blew his wad and fell back to P5 or P6. Reutzel come on pretty strong in the last few laps but I don't think even given a few more laps he would have had enough to get around Rico.

I agree Aaron was coming! But I have seen many of races where if it were a lap or two longer the results would have been different.

If I could somehow figure out how to paste a picture of you beating a dead horse with a stick, I would.
Donny ain't getting back to the old days, handling or not. Time's up. You can Ricky Warner us to death, but when Donny was a driver in his prime, he was winning 1 of every 3 races. Rico in his prime is winning 1 of every 6 or 7 races. Sorry, love Rico and all, but the difference maker in the Donny/Ricky duo, was Donny. Supported by facts---not opinions you call facts.

Father time hasnt been defeated yet. Donny Steve Doug were the best now Kyle is best part time driver.Several had a shot as NASCAR and some like Gordon and Kasey Kyle made it work. Riding around at speed is like the 4 wide salute to the fans at 200 mph

You have access to a parallel universe that we don't? How are those facts? Surely someone running multi-million dollar companies understands the difference between a fact and an opinion?
Fact: Donny/Ricky in Donny's prime, far outperformed Rico/Ricky in Rico's prime.
My opinion: Donny is being beaten by a field of much younger, more aggressive talent, in equal equipment, and time has caught up with him.
See how that works. Just say "in my opinion, Donny has managed to side-step father time and would be every bit as great today as he was 10 years ago if he still had Ricky Warner." If you say that, then that's your opinion and you don't sound as dumb as when you call it "fact." Becuase there are no facts showing Donny would be performing better.

Make I ask how you know these are facts? Are you saying you are God like and know things others don't? it just seems as if you're like so many others in the world now and just can't have a conversation without crying that your opinion is the only one that matters.
Maybe you belong standing outside Columbia Univ insted of a racing board
BTW--Murphy, 2 weeks till Husets opens

And yet, in the last H-L race, the incredible Ricky Warner helped Rico charge from 9th to finish 8th! It's almost like there's there's multiple factors involved in winning.

First and foremost you need a great crew chief! The 15 hasn't had that since Ricky left!

Sooo how much has Rick accomplished without Donny compared to with? Does Knoxville, King's Royal, National Opens count to you?
