He might be referring to the Kokomo thread, where a midget team made a wrong turn and was about to drive onto the track while cars were under caution.

Don’t know why but he seemed to be unable to back it up as directed and just kinda froze. Started to come down the chute again before someone had to physically get in and back it out for him. They had medical checking him out in the pits before he’d be allowed to leave. The whole thing was just bizarre.

I hope you get it in, for the promoter's, fans and teams sake. Cluster of storms in ILL headed toward S Indiana.

I love the Burg, and I don't want to see big tracks go away. Sprint cars were made to be run on big tracks and stretch their legs, drivers need high speed experience. Running sprints on micro tracks is a farce. Tired of the "track is too big, too fast, too hard on my stuff" crap.

This cluster won’t get anywhere near the Burg.

I have been watching the weather today and I agree. The rain isn't going to be anywhere near Larryburg

Future cast shows any storms going elsewhere.
The chance that a cloud will build up strength somewhere close and dump is never out of the question.

We've been dry since about five am.
Took the dogs out this morning to several limbs and trees around here down, But Im Fifty miles east. Some areas without power. Got woken three times by storms.

I'll see ya all down there. My choice of Front or backstretch will be made if my pops can make it.

Try the food. He's got pizza back (Haven't tried,) Pretzel dogs, And a killer Cheeseburger equivalent of a wendys double for FIVE BUCKS.

Thanks everyone for coming down. It wasn't a killer crowd, But it was a good crowd

Think the goal was to just keep the track from getting rough. been several storms the last few days.. Was a cushion you could have sat on like a bench right up on the wall.

Don't know if I should be honored to watch Seavey work or not. He goes for it. All I'll say. We need some TMEZ to come down and whoop him

Glad this race happened,with the previous administration I doubt if it would've.
Interesting feature to watch,hard racing,slide jobs and yes,crashes.
Driver taking ownership in something they created,now that's a rarity.
Just so you know Charles,we tried the cheeseburger,it was very tasty as advertised. However the Dewigg Double Cheeseburger @ The Class Track is still at the top of our list.
Off to Circle City.🏁🏁
