I am glad Tri City is back open. However, I am not sure why they had put the crates on the card when Pittsburgh is running a big crate race for 2100 to win. Now some of the guys who probably would have came to Pittsburgh like Blair could go to Tri City instead.

I think they are banking on Stateline cars. I think after the home run financially last week, this could be a mistake. It's a pretty big risk, but kudos for the effort.

I am not looking for freebies.....chad asked me to post around, and I said I would help. max and I have been trying to get this going since stateline closed. not to hurt ppms. we have no Saturday track running up here, and tri-city agreed to put up a show. there are about 50 crates up north, and only we were gonna come down that I know of. but we want another track to race on, instead of eating hot dogs around a fire. buying 3 hards for ppms is tough for one night. them guys are tough to beat down there....

Gotta give them props for the effort. Stateline was getting very good LM car counts this year, if most of those guys go down it should be a good field considering some Western PA cars will probably show too. I hope it works for them.

Just like mercer scheduling against the laboon race. Tri-city ads a race days before another big ppms race, gotta love tracks putting it to ppms.

Most Rush Tour races only pay 1200 to 1500 to win. I would think for 2100 to win that more cars from North would come down besides Bidwell. Randy Hall has been to Pittsburgh a few times and ran well. Blair has won a ton this year, I doubt buying 3 hard tires would keep him from coming down for 2100 to win.

Yeah they were thrilled to be there weekly with a great purse a few years ago too. That worked out well. Btw I'm not shitting on the late models or Saturdays, more the fact that they have like a weeks notice. Hard to get word out that fast.

Hard to feel pity for PPMS management at this point. They're pretty terrible at what they do.

I hope you're right. I'm on your side, I'd just hate to see them make a quick decision like this and hurt them selves. I hope the pits and stands are as full as sunday, but a week isn't a lot of time to promote a show.

I would be highly surprised if that race would draw 35 cars!!  More like 25 in this day and age of low car counts.  If you have a 3 hour drive, you must live out of the western PA area??  Or maybe way souht east such as the Bedford-Roaring Knob area??
