    I really liked Dave Blaney. He’s the right kind of role model for young people in racing. Class act. Great show!

      How about don't run the Lou Blaney when the 4 Crown Nationals are running up the road .
      Maybe someone would watch and care .

      @Trackratz-zl9di We've been fighting unpredictable weather in the area all summer/early fall. I'm sure they were just trying to get it in before snow started flying. I mean, they could have just canceled it.

      I live about 20 minutes from the track and have been going off and on since the early 80's. Things were rough there for a while. Even after the new ownership, it was my understanding that they were operating in the red at least some of the time. I would be devastated if anything happened to that place.

    didn't know blaney still raced, but knew they were affilliated with the track, well its a capstone to a long sucessful run, as for me went to the 4 crowns it was very warm day, pursly came very close, met most of the drivers, saw tmez didn't get too much chance to talk though but he did remember I did historical railroading even though its been a year really since we talked and mentioned how brutal the f1 stock car racing is in england 3200 lbs and they hit hard,
    did meet old timer jimmy light though used to hear his name watching old broadcasts and notes though history though, was nice to finaly meet him though, the track was brual dry and I think raking it though they tried to fix it just made it worse the winged sprints just sandblasted the front rows , and so did the silver crown cars, and the track kept shreding tires I think at least 3-4 had to come in to replace a tire on the silver crown race and there were a few bang ups. and just were too many stops non of them could really get momentum

    For as slick Eldora was would have been nice to hear about Briggs Danner coming from 12 to 3rd and pushing for second. Anymore laps and he would have running for the win. The kid is good.

    That's why you learn how to drive on different. That is why he will never top bloomquist as the goat because his complaining of tracks plus he never done anything with building cars doesn't have the knowledge. That is why I like pierce more with his understanding cars because of his father's knowledge of building cars.

    There is so much more talent in the world of outlaws, these results in high limit really in the grand scheme of things dont mean much, sure theyre making money, this series is a flash in the pan, then the drivers will re join the outlaw circuit again but by then, they will find it harder than you would expect to win again as they have only been racing with the high limit guys, i mean, if peck is winning, or sanders is up there pissn ppl off im like yeah buddy, now run with the outlaws

    JD isn't wrong, Knoxville is the worst track on the LO schedule. Produces piss poor racing on top of being extremely hard on equipment. Just not a great venue for both fans and teams. I have said it many times "my feelings wouldn't be hurt if Knoxville was taken off the schedule".

    I credit Dave Blaney with changing the "image" of sprint car racing back in the late 80's. His clean cut, accountant appearance was so contradictory to the norm of the day. Professionalism in the sport has come a long way.

    • @stevenicholson9629
      @stevenicholson9629 5 днів тому

      Talking about Eldora's track prep issues seems pointless. They don't seem to admit they have a problem, and they have to group of rabid employees and fans who will make excuses and ridicule anyone who makes any comments about it. @dirtrackr is wise to avoid the subject.

      @@Trackratz-zl9di Davenport needs to set his Taxi Cab up better, With the weather Knoxville was having during this deal 90% of the tracks would not even raced. NOBODY has a better track crew then Knoxville. Most of the other Major Dirt Tracks sent their people to Knoxville to learn how to do it. Iowa has the biggest Sprint Car Race in the World=Boone Super Nationals biggest Modified Race , NASCAR and Indy car Track. Over 100 Dirt Tracks racing every weekend. Iowa even feeds the World.

    Feel for Huddy, but I couldn’t care less for the Burns team being out of championship contention. After their little stunt earlier this year they don’t deserve to have their team in that position, in my opinion. You don’t just do that to your now previous driver mid season.

    I was fortunate to spend a fair amount of time around Dave Blaney and Kenny Woodruff when they were together way back. Neither one of them had much to say so they were a perfect match. Dave's one of the really good guys to ever be around this sport and the dude was a gasser. What a way to go out. Well Done.
