I agree that a lot of fans like more then one form of racing, but dirt has changed considerably. It has become more mainstream and more national in it's popularity. There are more multiple day/week long events being held in the dirt scene that have fans traveling all over the Country to see...

^^^^Yeah he is already going to run a limited schedule in the WOO next season along side Pittman and Sweet.

Not the same. In your scenario, Kulwicki would have tossed a Championship away, in this scenario JJ threw away an opportunity to advance. There are a ton of variables in JJ's situation that still have to occur as well. You have a guy who knows that his team has struggled to be a contender and is...

They have to make an adjustment to these rules then. Earlier in the race KyBu cut turn 1 in an effort to avoid the cars stacking up and under the guise of "avoiding an accident" and "not advancing his position" he was not penalized. In JJ's situation it was on him for causing the ,mayhem, but he...

First, no it didn't, a little dramatic here. I think there are a few things to look at. I agree risk versus reward was not contemplated here, but these guys are competitors, it's not something that they do. If they were wired to give up and not take a shot when it presents itself (which it did)...

Neither actually. Just stating that most fans dont accept it when most drivers do it. Shouldn't be the other way around when she does it for her first win in the K&N series. She didnt move Ryan Partridge like I said. She didnt move a Kyle Busch or a Kevin Harvick where it was David vs. Goliath...

Not for the W. Not the way she did it. She went in and refused to hold the car to the bottom. It was the moment where one driver knows going down the straight that they are not trying to cleanly pass someone, they are going to move them. If they wreck, oh well. Like I said, I approve of the...

I think that she is definitely in the future plans. She will have a truck race at some point next season. However, she moved a teammate, that is a little different then moving Ryan Partridge or another driver not in the same shop as you. Also, at Vegas she was banged around, but it is dirt and...

I find it interesting that people are dumping on Jimmie. First he doesn't owe a single fan an explanation as to why he did what he did. When I watched him do it I thought it was a very Un-Jimmie like moment. He is usually a very big picture thinking guy. However, I love that he did it and he...

She has talent, but is still extremely raw. She also is in the absolute best equipment from Bill McAnally with the Toyota backing. She moved her teammate for that win and I am sure if there were any angst the conversation would be geared around how it were her first win. If she were leading and...

There is something so raw about dirt racing. It's not so elite that guys get offended by the slightest amount of contact. I think that it is the fact that the series are still very much dictated by the driver and there is an outlaw mentality from those who compete in it. They will get into any...

When people look at NASCAR it looks like the average Joe can do it. When people look at a Sprint Car race they know they wouldn't be able to do it, let alone barrel roll into a catch fence, get out and in less than an hour be in the backup car doing it again. People take someone saying that...

We usually sit mid point between start/finish and turn 1. However. the best seat in the house is in the infield. When you are in the middle of that bowl and the chaos is surrounding you there is nothing better. The feel for the speed is unreal.

Vegas is traditionally a dusty track. It just doesn't take rubber well. When they run the Duel in the Desert with the Mods every year its a dust bowl. The climate just doesn't allow for the track to hold it's moisture. However, this was pretty bad. They have had time to prepare and the just...

I'm as much of a seat snob as any guy I know. I like the best seats and I will pay for my convenience in life, but the thing about small venues is that the seats are never bad. We had a pole in front of us last night. Not a problem. View was great.

Yeah totally agree. NASCAR always talks about going back to their "roots" with races like Bristol and Martinsville. I just laugh because I don't know when the "roots" were racing venues holding 100k people........I went to a Truck race at the old Mesa Marin and holy cow was that an awesome...

Michael "Buddy" Kofoid is in this race. He is one of the next big names coming through the 360 and 410 ranks out here in California. I first saw him at 14 just killing a 360

I agree, make it so that they make multiple swings to regions or are in a specific region for a period of time. Shorten the race lengths as well. Just add some uniqueness to the appearances. I would love to see 40 Cup cars at a 1/2 mile like Kern County out in Bakersfield on a Wednesday night...

Another thing I would like to see is NASCAR make a thing out of the Winning purse. It adds a level of need, desperation and importance to the race. However, the winnings are so inflated at a CUP event that I am sure it would lose it's luster. I just wish there were more emphasis from NASCAR on...

I love the bullring atmosphere at p'ville. These guys run so may 1/2's that when they come to a high banked 1/4 it's elbows up or get run off the track. The experience at a WOO show is second to none. When these guys go 24 deep into turn 1 and burp the throttle on the cushion you just cannot...
