Read above. That's the reason why. If there wasn't a ALl Star point races at Bubba they would be at Lincoln.

Correct BRR, if memory serves, the first couple of races @ Lincoln are draw shows until a handicapping order can be established...
BTW, which of the top PA teams are chasing the rainbow that is The Eastern All Stars...?... :~/

You are only talking about 6 drivers who are already in Florida that will miss the Lincoln opener. Rahmer, Hodnett, Hafertype, Ott and Pittman. Mark Smith will probably run the 360's at East Bay. Weather will also be a factor at both Lincoln and Ocala, both races might not even be run.

It only makes sense from a dollars perspective. $20k to win point fund and also 3 races paying decent money.

I've really got to the point that I love to sit down and try to decipher 410James posts...It's kinda like trying to look at a text conversation between my teenage son and one of his buddies and trying to figure it out, except the text abbreviations are WAAAAAY easier to understand and put together...hahahah _________________ _________________ For those of you who want to know what James just said but can't figure it out here's the cracked code______________ ___________________ ______________
"braner"=brainer........... "monies"(x2)=money(x2) ........... "mure"=more ........... "ekwill"=equal ..."qwalifyin"=qualifying .... "linin"=lining ..... "an"=and ....... "pleese"=please ........ "asbs"=ASCS...... ____________________ _________________ _____ There's the code guys, now you to can figure out what this boy is trying to say...next time you need a little help reading one of these posts feel free to PM me with a link to the thread and I will be more than happy to help you......HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Loose is when you hit the wall with the rear of the
car, tight is when you hit the wall with the front of
the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and
torque is how far you move the wall.

Not sure what you mean------if Lincoln runs on Saturday there will be plenty of "top teams" there. These are the teams that really matter. The ones who will support the track by being there every weekend, who are weekend warriors, everyday hard working, fun and race loving people. These are the teams you should be worried about not showing up for some reason, these are the teams who week-in and week-out will put on a great show for you. Sooner or later you guys will start to understand that these drivers who insist on making a living driving a sprint car can't do it by running their local tracks anymore. The economy cannot support it and they are a dying breed.
Horaah for the local guys who race local, live local, work local and entertain us every weekend!

Of the 6 names you mention Stan, they only managed 2 wins at Lincoln all of last year. Are you sure Lincoln will be missing the "top teams?" Go Leppo!

Did anyone aside from Monteith win more than twice at Lincoln last year?
But yeah.
Hope they get it in this weekend, and hope anybody but Monteith wins.
