Another venue change, for Friday night. Limaland is a rainout and the racing is moving to Atomic for Friday night.

At first I thought these teams may complain about jumping around but on second thought
It's what they do so im sure they just go with the flow and it seems kinda cool and exciting now

I was going to reply, "and get paid," but that link explained it well.  Plus a good laugh courtesy of the lowrider.

The All-Stars cancelled the sprint portion of the race after the spectator fencing got torn down in a sprint car flip in the third heat.

who flipped and are they ok

[dirtstudent2]

I think it was the 2 car Peterson who flipped in about the same place as Foos.

 

Looks like they now don't know how to or might not be able to grade the track properly all the way up to the wall.  Looked like ruts got both.

 

 

I haven't decided yet between Wayne County and Mercer.  I'll probably go to Mercer because of the enjoyable announcer.  It's been great there since Jim took on the announcing.  No bias, favoritism or bullshit there anymore over the loud speaker.

I have to admit I don't go to Mercer as often as Lernerville, but I don't remember any kind of driver bias from Mike Dutko at Mercer or when he was at Lernerville. Yes, he made some commentaries that I didn't agree with, but they were valid opinions and not any type of driver favoritism. I liked Mike Dutko's announcing. I like Jim Balentine's too. 

 

I tend to like the announcers who act like they know the drivers and something about racing and the track. Dutko and Jim both have that quality.

It was Brinton Marvel in the 21M.  He was ok, but someone in the stands was slightly injured.  

[WannaRace]

I seen on several other pages that one of the people struck had hid back broken in 4 places. He released a post describing his injuries, and in good spirits.

Just lucky to be alive.
