That track surface sucked! It ate everyones rr tire up and then when it was worn down to the cords, those rocks in the track ripped a hole in them.

We're they on the 1325/1350's they normally run ?

I'd imagine they had the track packed tight expecting the rain that was everywhere last night. You're gonna get an abrasive surface when you do that. It happens when you get questionable weather like that. Would you have rather they left the track open and catch a shower and cancel?

It was an open tire rule. Looks like pretty much everyone went too soft.

Like I said, they probably left it packed tight so that it wouldn't take on moisture in the event of rain. What is so difficult to understand? If they had opened it and worked it, it probably wouldn't have been able to take on any moisture in the event of rain. And there was rain EVERYWHERE yesterday. I am shocked they even got it in and they should probably be commended for that. They did what they had to do to get it in.

The top three that tire tested were all on 1350's. Richards tire was the only one that was changed during the race. Moyer and Lathroums tires looked like slicks.

PPMS is one of the easiest tracks in the country to pass on. Montgomery passed 18 cars in 8 laps Saturday night. You obviously haven't been there in several years so your opinion expired.

I have already explained this to you in depth. He was passing cars like they were stopped and instantly put 10 cars on them. When your car is THAT fast yes it's very easy to pass, if you are only slightly faster than the car in front of you it's difficult .

My random thoughts on the show last night $35 was a bit steep for the stands and only 2 classes, but what can you do. The track crew/NDRL kept the show moving, no BS, had cars lined up and ready to go for each event. A+ Track might have been abrasive but there were very few cautions, dust and spins. Just flat tires at end which can be blamed on the tire choices. I didn't see any Crates with flats in the feature before. Man can that 12 year old kid wheel a race car. He's like a robot out there. It was nice of NDRL to let off the fireworks during the brief rain delay to keep the fans entertained and again keep the show moving along. I was surprised to only see 37 SLM for a $20K show, and quite a few were the local Knob/Elkins guys. Maybe the quipement was used up from a long weekend? Also sucked to see 8-9 cars finish such a big race, and the top 6 or so had pitted and came back out during the last 7 laps. Roaring Knob is a great little track, just hate climbing the Summitt. Looking forward to the Pittsburgher. Hopefully they can get 50 cars but I'm starting to doubt that after last night.

The whole evening was a snoozer and wish I hadn't made the 2 hour trip each way.

I have already explained this to you in depth. People keep saying you can't pass at PPMS, but of the 60 tracks I've been to PPMS is in the top 10 in passing. And that is typically when cars pass other cars, when they're faster. You can make that statement about any racetrack in the country. There are plenty of tracks in the country where the fastest car can't win because the track is terrible. PPMS isn't one of those anymore. The Pittsburgher will be the best NDRL race of the year. PPMS on it's worst day is still better than the Knob was last night. They should have worked on the track before the feature.
