Equally impressive track conditions. Why have a support class to help suck the little moisture there is to begin with? Is there anyone left that actually cares about the sport? I guess EVERYONE just goes to get drunk now.

Pretty obvious who caused the initial wreck and subsequent chain of events. I've never been to Eldora but after hearing alot of fans opinions about the racing surface there, I don't know if I'll ever go. Nothing compares the track prep guys at Knoxville. They are the best in the business.

Am I the only one who can't play the video? It just sits on 0:00 and won't play. It can't take THAT long to buffer...

By the way it looked, Lynch's from end came it to the cockpit. Bad deal for Joey! Just cannot shake the bad luck. And I agree with the statement about Eldora's track prep...sure leaves a lot to be desired. Ever since Tony took it over its been a piece of shit! Eldora was one of the few places I wanted to go to before I get old and decrepid but I really dont care now. Im just fine going to my local track....I-55!!

the irony of reality...
Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

Would be interesting to see a better angle. I can't tell if it pieces from Lynch's car got into the cockpit or if it could have been caused by Shaffer's car getting into the cockpit during the melee. Either way, a truly unfortunate deal.

I can't stand the Kings Royal race format. Saldana sets quick time and has to start third in the heat. Donny Schitz qualifies 20th and starts fourth in the same heat ? Who got the prefered line there. Shitz was running second before they even got to the finish line and Saldana was in about 5th. The whole format sucks big time.
Just my opinion.
