Gonna be interesting to read about the track coming up again tomarrow. It did come up didn't it? I mean everybody said it was gonna come up. Was I at the wrong track AGAIN?
 
A couple drivers complained that it was coming apart again.......but I don't think it was a factor.
 
Well, it probably was a bit cooler today. And yea, I saw em actually have to pit under green so there musta been a long run.
 
The only friend was the clouds,just like Mighty Mouse said.The track never even played into the race.Position was the key,and so prominent it was too.
 
There is little article over on NOL where a couple of drivers said the track was coming up during the first red flag delay. Didn't seem to bother those teams that had the cars right though.

Too bad there were so few lead changes, where's the excitement in that.

Seriously, it was good race and Ryan and Kurt didn't seem unhappy with the track at all. Maybe they just don't have the 'sperience yet to know any better.....:D
 
They Mentioned today that they were gonna tear it up and then re do it again. Maybe, This track just needed some more racing on it to really settle in. Or it could have just been a slap happy job by whoever did it.
 
I was wondering why so many tires went flat. If it actually was from bumping, the cameras missed it all.
 
the race was a follow the leader event!
there was very little passing! I guess the people of newengland have it real bad cause they support the track.
but there was no racing on the track itself. just pit strategy which did help a few get positions in the end.
 
Racing is passing?

All those wasted years watching for the wrong things, sigh.:(

I would guess the people in New England support Loudon for the same reason I support California Speedway. It's close enough to get to and it's a race they can attend. California is by far not the most exciting racing on the schedule but it's the only one I can attend without expenses I cannot justify to get to. I'm not a Loudon track fan.........but it's a race with it's quirks that make it challenging for the drivers and teams. One race a year there is enough, but they have two so we just have to live with it.:)
 
Sometimes it depends on where ya are.

Sometimes it depends on what you see. DJ sees it one way.

"It was a tough day. We had a good race car and made our way up. Todd did a great job of adjusting on the car. We passed a lot of cars and I was really pleased. I'm not sure that I had anything for the first two because I never saw those guys, but I know I was catching the guys in front of me at a pretty rapid rate. I'm pretty happy with it. Considering everything, we'll take a seventh."

HOW WAS THE TRACK? "The race track was fine. There was a couple of racing grooves and everything was pretty good."
