Hahah yeah they are racing weather for next week has been bouncing all over the place so their 75 degree day they are advertising could be wishful thinking after a 40 degree day and maybe a half inch of rain!

Best track in central Pa. Time will tell if they get it in or not. I for one sure hope they do....since next weekend is to be raining.

Genius Gobrecht and his parade of 100 clown ("Legends" cars are a real reason why people stopped going to Lincoln.

True for me, I won't go there when legend cars are there. Keep that junk at susky.

We don't have Legends cars on the upper plains. Our plague is B-mods. Every couple years, mini-sprints, micro-sprints, or whatever pop up again for a few years. I presume the Legends races resemble those races- too small for the track they are racing on. By the end of the first lap, 95% of the finishing order is already in place. Would little cars with motorcycle engines be more entertaining if they were on a smaller track, like a 1/8th mile or something? Some years back, I watched some videos of little 600cc(?) sorta sprints from some little PA track- Linda's, an airport, Trailways(?) Anyway, there was a lot of racing action. Sometimes, they'd go almost 2 or 3 laps before a couple of them got upside down.

Look at the stats. Lincoln is the best track in Central PA. Thanks for changing your opening date to Thursday 2.23.23 instead of the weekend when it is to be raining/snowing. They are simply the BEST!

I am a bit harsh on the legend cars. I wouldn't mind them so much but they bring 50-70 cars and makes Lincoln's long nights even longer. Lincoln is a big wide track for them and they still crash Maybe they could run them enduro style at the end of the night. Yes, micro sprint racing is turning into a no holds barred contact sport all across the country.

Legends look like a division which would be fun and affordable to participate but not so much fun for the fans to watch. On a 1/4 mile they would probably be OK. I don't remember them ever having 70 but usually 40-50 which is still too many. I understand that Lincoln is eager to get started and Thursday looks much better for wether than the weekend but Thursdays are pretty difficult for teams and fans, most of whom have to work early in the morning. I'll catch the replay on flo I guess. With the cost of racing and the already long and ever growing schedule, I've never really understood the need to start in winter.

The stats billv puts out. Over half the races at Lincoln are won from the 4th row or further back.
Look at all the stats. Lincoln is the best track in PA and second place isn't even close. Average starting position is almost 2 better than the asphalt palace. Port very rarely has a bottom groove. Knoxville & Eldora almost always have a top and bottom groove.
Winner from the front row percentage.
- 22% Lincoln
- 32% Port Royal
Average starting postion
- 6.4 Lincoln
- 4.7 Port Royal
Winners from outside the top 3 rows.
- 56% Lincoln
- 21% Lernerville
- 20% River Cities
- 19% Husets
- 18% Port Royal
Deepest winning Positions.
- 19th Port Royal - Took a 50 lapper to get this one.
- 17th River Cities
- 13th Lincoln

It still proves my point Lincoln still had a higher winning percentage from outside the first 3 rows and a lower winners rate from the front row. Thanks for proving my point.
The average starting position 4.4 to 4.3 now that is a smokin gun!....LOL!!

Port Royal has too many time trial races and not enough handicapped races. I have compained about that for couple of years now. Most of those races are good ones but it will result in lower average starting positions for the winner no matter which track it is on. The big purse races are nice but I fear that it will hurt the family fan base and future fans with the higher admission cost.

Not really. Lincoln is by far the raciest track in central PA. Second place isn't even close.
