You can't see the good ones if you are not there. I can asure you it was better in person. The track was the smoothest it has been since the new guys took over. Did have a good bit of dust. Don't know if that other guy helped out or not.

It was an incredible race all throughout the pack.  Double D raced a super clean race - so clean it may have cost him the win.

 

Macri was awesome to watch winding up momentum and picking the perfect time to pass all night.  No way flo could do that race Justice with everything going on.

I was there last night.  It was good racing.

Hats off to Bard he drove a heck of a race.   I personally think he won. Me and the guy beside me both had Bard winning. I slowed down the finsh on Flo and I still think Bard won.

Didn't Port have a few years ago a similar finish and the scoring loop and finish line were different locations ?  The camera and timing line had a different winner at each line.

I was there last and watched it on Flo today. Flo didn't catch half the action in that race. That is nothing agaist Flo, nothing beats being there for a race like that one. Unless the camera or you are right in line with the timing loop you can't judge a race that close. Everyone want electronic scoring so there would no disputing any finish for any position.

Terrific race, especially for a regular weekly event. Bard did a great job holding off Dietrich, you could sense Macri coming on & a spectacular pass for the win. Macri is definitely the most exciting Pa. driver...

Couldn't agree more with the guys who said it had to be much better live. Watched on Flo, but you couldn't see Macri fighting thru the pack. Thinking about the 4-5 hr. drive for the Weikert this coming weekend... :)

OK, you've reached your limit of 500 post responses about how to do track prep.

I, for one, am not going to go through another summer moderating this forum reading the same post by you over and over and over, so any future posts like this will simply be deleted.

The only reason I'm leaving this one up is so you can see you've been warned - for the final time.

Ya know, when I thought there could be improvements or more excitement at tracks and areas I've lived in over the past 45 years, I'd go help the track to help affect change.

But just sitting around complaining about the same thing over and over - and not doing anything about it is nothing other than bitching.

Go help a track! Show them how it's done! Impress us! Life is too short for inaction.

Nope. Just opinions that's all but by all means keep crying.

Well I know what happens when they don't water a track....currently watching this scenario at Atomic.  Is it just me or are most Ohio tracks dry and dusty?
