    COOKIE CUTTER RACE CARS -VS-OLD SCHOOL RACE CARS -WHAT DO THINK?

    Actually Ford was the last mfg to produce full size full framed rear drive autos. The Crown Vic was last produced in 2011 as many a cop car was built on this platform. Hot rodders today value those cars because they sport r&p steering and positaction rears and are easy to modify. Purpose built...

    Dont Understand

    Back at you. Your point? Oswego's best crowds are for SDW yet that is hardly a traditional dirt track. Lancaster had a huge crowd for their WMT show (good for them) but the novelty of a first ever event for them was a large reason for it. Look at Spencer this year. I'll bet a number of...

    Yes I agree that 250 laps is too many. When Joe S took over the ROC from Harpell he restored the race to the traditional 250 laps. Me? I would have gone the other way. It is my frim belief that NO short track race anywhere needs to be over 150 laps. Given what we use for tires these races become...

    2021 Shootout at the Bullring (Wyoming County Int'l Speedway)

    13 cars in the headline division on the biggest race day of the year means what exactly? I think it means the owner of that place might want to look in the mirror to see the trouble there.

    Sorry luv..but I don't see a snowballs chance in Getzville of a "packed" pits or "packed" grandstand. Andy J and Patrick E won't be there as they have other racing commitments that day/ Matt Hirschman will be at TTOM event in Seekonk and I know 2 other teams that will (reportedly) not be...

    Spencer Speedway - TONIGHT July 16th

    "Stafford has a $5000 to win open mod show Friday too. I would think that would hurt Spencer from drawing NE cars." NE Mods rarely if ever venture into NY to race. For 5k to win against Matt and Pat Emerling in their sandbox? I don't see that ever. Perry a few years ago had a 10K to win AR...

    Tire shortages

    As far as I know it affects short track racing primarily. Hoosier and American Racer are both facing the same issues with regard to raw material from the petro states ( Texas,Oklahoma etc) and a labor shortage that has affected most industries and business as we know. The Covid excuse is bull...

    What has happened to racing?My 2 cents worth.

    Foot, save your soda pop deposit money and come to the Burr memorial season closer in Sept. Grab a cheap hotel in Watertown (4 miles away) and go home the next day. Spencer race this Fri is still on as far as I know. We were slated to race but.... the back straight wall at the Mills changed...

    NASCAR Trucks at Knoxville

    The SRX race at Slinger was 1000 % better. Trucks remain NASCARS demo derby. It's good racing when they race but mostly a shhit show otherwise.

    What has happened to racing?My 2 cents worth.

    Well..I can promote. Please pay a visit to Evans Mills Speedway this year if you can find a way. The level of financial investment and time the the Gills have put into the place is paying off. They are doing what few other asphalt tracks in NY are even attempting and the crowds are coming...

    What has happened to racing?My 2 cents worth.

    jrkenn Offering up an opinion isn't illegal (yet) and I didn't mention a track or a promoter by name so I'd say tuff sheet to anybody who doesn't care for my take on things at some tracks. Not when we have a great example up north (Evans Mills) that is working real hard to restoring that...
