- Eldora Speedway home of the 4 Crown National Event
With no rain in the forecast for the last two months, the track was slick as I’ve ever seen it. We struggled to get the car into the track, but it really didn’t matter when I got caught up in a huge pile up on lap one on Saturday nights event, I kind of combined both nights here because we weren’t making much speed. Therefore there wasn’t much good footage from the first night.
I saw you at Skegness and said hi to you you really are such a nice guy wish you all the luck in your racing maybe you could come back one day
I knew right away you be one taken out 😢 glad you and Maddie had a great trip in England. At least you got seat time in the midget for this weekend. Safe travels and let her rip the lip 🤟
Tough weekend and the track was horrible Saturday night. My wife and I finally found Maddie selling shirts, she was awesome to talk to
Put some BRISCA bumpers on, and you'll drive right through that stuff. 😅
My thoughts exactly - you just keep the pedal down until you make a gap or the wall, whichever comes first😀. Good racing though, certainly different than what we are used to in the UK. Well worth a look I reckon next time we are in IN 🏁
Good to see Donnie Gentry in your video. You two killed it in the Shane Wade Amati66 Sprinter there. This is Easton, I looked for you at Pevely Ironman to see if DG was there helping to no avail. Keep doing what you do!
If you ever see a guy with a RMS Chili Bowl shirt from the year there were five drivers with a prosthetic leg walking in the midget pits that’s me. I should retire that shirt, lol.
Things happen fast living on the edge. Best of Luck and Skill Elbow's Up at the BC39.
I liked the new shirt so much i picked one up there 🤙
ouch you got took out, I wondered what happened, I saw you one minute and the next gone, was very dusty but I guess the grounds crew tried, thanks for the conversation, and thanks for remembering and asking about the historical railroading I mentioned last year while we talked, was a tight night and got a little behind at the start of comp, well you'll get them at bc 39 you can do it, just a matter of getting it dialed in, eldora is always fast and furious, and goes very dry quick especially with the heat and could not belive they were doing the wing cars three at a time crazy usually only see two at a time.eldora though is always furious with its banking, can say though the silver crown race was starting to get a bit annoying how man got flats, it must have been like driving on sandpaper out there by that point, and there just wasn't much time to get momentum, which the champ cars rely on soo much for their long distance racing, they got horsepower but they also have more weight to try to push around and takes a lap to get them up to speed or more and if you cant get even three they dont have much chance to get into a groove or try to pass., especially with it as dry as it was
hi from the uk i can see why you thought our f1 s are like tanks compared to your cars ,,, glad you got home ok
Team worked there butt's off tuff seeing it go out like that
Oh, and BTW, really glad to see Donnie G. there!
Is this the same car from Sun Prairie (Angell Park)? I was wondering how badly damaged the car was and if it was totaled or not after the flip. (also, is that video coming?)
I wondered the same thing. Hard hit.
Yup, my step brother Kyle Jones got caught up in that one too. Shame.
Is you head hurting, that is way too much banging over there, , hood to see you back, thanks BigAl California, go do some more racing with Dodge,winged sprint cars, Indiana, thanks BigAl California.

I wish you guys would at least try a Lynx chassis with Tim’s awesome motor.
What was the 2 car doing? Seemed like he was more worried about blocking than running the fastest line. Wow
On the chip, you’re gonna blow shit up at that place
Jeez. At 9:47 in heat 1 Justin Grant chopped you big time. That’s OK. The BC 39 is coming.
You're right about that. But that was nothing compared to what Daum did to Zach Wigal. That's what caused the big wreck.
Hey also not to bother you but you are right. Way to stiff on the rear and need softer/quicker rebound on the front. Car is very rigid amd not grabbing the track at all!
Can’t catch a break
Hope next year is USAC only
The 4 crown 👑 is this big event but anytime you put that many cars on a dirt track it’s going to be a dust shit bowl. Charlotte dirt track is like that with just the Woo. I’m telling ya, stick with the midget and get a permanent USAC sprint car ride and after a year in both racing it week after week you’ll be a contender…
Good luck at the BC39 👍 😊
World Finals at Charlotte turn four is miserable with dust showers, turn one much better. They finally got a new water truck.
You have got to figure out how to make that chassis work on the bottom, period. You consistently lost spots having to get up top. I know you and Tim are trying, but it may be time to cut bait and go a different route. That EAstealth is too good to be running in the back at these big shows.
Don't the kids go to school???
I hate to say this Thomas it sounds like you've done everything you can to get this chassis to work and hook up. Maybe it's time that you drop the motor in a different chassis, and see what's going on. If you're going to make the trip to California, you should probably think about doing just what I said you don't want to go all the way out there and have the problems you're having now. But you know better than anyone. What the car needs and what the car is doing and whether something like I said will work or not.
you are right, this chassis is RF lacking, bottom shock should be as close as possible . there is a lot of stupid energy wasted! not only that but it acts like a bogo stick! Thomas is one hell of a driver and I cant wait till me and my family go truth some difficulty and place him in whatever he wants to RACE!!!!!!! Love you bro!
Good to see you got back safely from the UK, I think the full contact at skegness was a bit of an eye opener for you , hope you enjoyed something different, we enjoyed having you here.
Easy TMez,glad you got back ok from Skegness👍
The answer to your setup problems is on the end of the phone in the UK,ring Tom Harris it’s what Ballou does🏁🇺🇸💊💊
That 2 car thinks he is the only one out there.
I like eldora for the midget cars because it’s Hammer down all the way
Nice video. Thanks. 🍀🇺🇸🍀
Jesus 😮 good view of the cushion 👌🏻
Tmez quick question?? When it seems like your lost on set up and don't know really what to throw at it, do you ask other drivers what they are running??
Bad deal for a lot of you guys. Can't win on restarts and dusty
Dang the luck! Still good to see you on the track bro! Wish you better luck for the future!❤

At Angell Park me saw you and we had saw when your tire was flat. Also, at the end that flip was crazy. I hope your car will be fixed by the next race!
Stood next to you at the drivers meeting Friday night. I wanted to say 'hi', but didn't want to bother you at the time. Now I regret not saying something. Sorry for your bad luck on Saturday night. New subscriber.
12:34 cartoon style spring

TmeZ buddy you need to start winning improving and finding that steady ride,
Oops
