[acmerocket]

just looked at a entry list,no bell,larson.i only see creed.no other dirt races,iam hoping some willl show up.love this race

 

[kkfan91]

Strickler is running for KBM I believe

 

[toledo47]

Tyler Dippel has been running Nascar stuff for a couple of years but still runs some big block modified races.
Mike Marlar was the 2018 World of Outlaws late models champion.
So there are a few dirt guys entered

 

[AdoubleU24]

No Bobby Pierce either? I bet Friesen gets it done this year.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I like watching Bobby Pierce in the truck race...bummed he’s not in it this year. I wish he’d get more of a shot at NASCAR that is if he wanted it

 

[StandOnIt]

Curious to see if Crafton can make it two wins or if Briscoe can make it two in a row. Friesen and Enfinger have been right there also.

 

[Ventisca]

Curious to see who Tony Stewart will fight in the stands or parking lot.

 

[2 Sweet]

Really disappointed to hear Bobby Pierce isn't entered. I know he struggled last year, but he was really fast the years prior

 

[*WEAVER*]

He said he tried, but with the passing of mike mittler it didn't work out.

He's driving the #54 in place on Decker.

 

[Efisher131]

He's driving the #54 in place on Decker.

That's too bad. Decker would've put on quite the show at Eldora.

 

[DanicaFreak]

That's too bad. Decker would've put on quite the show at Eldora.

I think thats sarcasm. I dont think decker has the dirt experience that a deegan has.

 

[StandOnIt]

I think Norm Benning was looking forward to lapping her.

 

[Efisher131]

I think thats sarcasm. I dont think decker has the dirt experience that a deegan has.

Good or bad, it would've been a show.

 

[Brentford]

In regards to Decker, is having your team squeeze out one good finish every 10 races really worth taking out your main driver for? They really should have let Decker drive at Eldora.

 

[wi_racefan]

Does anyone know if the heat races will be on TV? I see coverage of 9 ET for the main event. IMO first couple years the heat races were worth watching.

[Jorge De Guzman]

I thought this race was tonight and Bobby Pierce was Racing...nvm. But still racing on a Thursday night that’s still a win

 

[JBone88]

Decker would’ve spun about 12 times.

She's part of a buy-a-ride deal, maybe her and her people decided not to do it.

Consecutive 10-lap averages from first truck practice:

 

[acmerocket]

i would take creed if he would calm down a little.

 

[racingfan7]

I hope Hailie runs this next year. Would be great if Brian decided to show up and do a one off dirt event as well.

 

[StandOnIt]

 

[Johali]

Oh crap.

 

[StandOnIt]

Best 10 consecutive lap average in final truck practice:

 

[LewTheShoe]

It's an old worn out cliche, but I still like my T-shirt that says...
"Dirt Is For Racing, Asphalt Is For Getting There"

Ross Chastain, who will start his very first dirt race tonight at Eldora, offered a funny counterpoint...
"Asphalt Is For Racing, Dirt Is For Farming Watermelons"

 

[racingfan7]

Ross is struggling on dirt lol.

 

[kkfan91]

I'm pulling for Mark Smith who is making his debut PA sprint car driver

 

[StandOnIt]

Getting close to time for the Smoke show

 

[aunty dive]

I like this Hocevar kid.

 

[Mispeedway15]

I think I’m gonna head over around 6 or so to the track

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Does Fox Sports even care anymore? There seems to be next to no hype for this race.

 

[Ventisca]

I think I’m gonna head over around 6 or so to the track

$10 to your Beer Fund if you bounce a beachball off Tony Stewart -- make sure to get video. Thanks in advance.

[superchuck500]

Should be a pretty popular win - nice job by Friesen to stick to his guns and go win It.

 

[AdoubleU24]

No Bobby Pierce either? I bet Friesen gets it done this year.

Sucks that I only bet $0

[wi_racefan]

I think they need to do something about caution flags there. Maybe not count them in the final stage or something? Just seems like the race really never got going. Not that the race was bad, but i think it could of been a whole lot better if it had some longer green flag runs.
