I thought WoO was doing that but this is on another level. I wish the money would just be put into purses and let the chips fall where they fall. Now it will just become a business like the ball sports. Wait till the Gen-1 sprint car comes out! I have big shoulders so start throwing your darts!
No darts from me! I think you’re 100% correct.
I like all sprint cars and I’ll admit I lean towards favoring wings because that’s what I ran but I have no intention of supporting Hi Limit.

Some of this Top level dirt racing is becoming more a joke than anything. Watched three Winged and two LM shows. All three Winged had fuel stops and unlimited time in work area. LMs had work area for heat races. IMO all this does is add time to the show and Im sure increases cost to the teams by a ton.


I don't honestly have a preference for either HL or WoO but WoO i don't get to see. and these HL and special FLO shows that pay more is just taking more of MY $$$ to pay those than spreading it out fairly to all the tracks that allow it to broadcast. So much so, I think I'll unsubscribe. Not only is it not live. But because I see so much racing.. It kinda numbs me when I actually get to go now.
