Have to give credit once again to them for sticking it to Mother Nature and running tonight, even though the forecast looked terrible. I'd love to see them get some guaranteed good weather to try to get car counts up where they deserve to have them, but great racing anyway. I feel bad because I know it's hard on their pockets on nights like that, but the extra effort goes beyond what ANY other area track puts in and it's not going unnoticed. Thank you!

Lernerville ran until the rain came, so Thunder Mountain wasn't the only track to try to beat the weather!!!

I worded that a little wrong. Sorry if it's misunderstood. I'm not saying no one else ran this week. I'm just pointing out that week after week they are putting 110% effort into racing, even when almost every Friday has either rained or had 80% chance of rain in the forecast. Cancelling the show just never seems to be an option for them, and I give them credit for it.

TM isn't my favorite track but I love the atmosphere there and they are pretty good to their drivers. I like that they go for it when others don't and they just raised pay for all classes but Racesaver sprints. I respect what they're doing and hope to make it to a few more races there this year. Glad Eck and Dorman started running there weekly. Build up the headliner. Max does well enough there, either the pay doesn't entice him or he doesn't want to race three nights a week but it would be nice to see a few more cars from the stateline/Eriez circuit come down there.
