Just got a message from John the announcer and they will be following dog hollows rules for the 4 and 6 cylinders and there will be no V8s allowed.

That is why I mentioned both the series and the track. I am well aware of how the ULMS operates. Chris and his crew really need to get their act together when it comes to the issues that I mentioned.

Really in my mind Bo and his guys did nothing wrong Friday. They prepared a great surface then handed over the reigns. And he is not responsible for the fact that some of the regulars there are incapable of driving.

The only reason I won't be back there has nothing to do with the track it's strictly because of some of the drivers that race there.

Those drivers screwed up the show and a lot of other people's equipment. That paired with the horrible calls on cautions has cast a pretty dark cloud on that series and track in my book.

Same guy brings the caution out 2 times and keeps his spot and the second time when it happened in turn 4 they scored the cars crossing the line after the incident rather than going back a lap.

Then a pile up happens on the front row and they charge a car that's running somewhere around 8th that drove into the infield to avoid it???

Every track has a few horrible drivers but there was no call for the terrible job done upstairs in the booth.

I was at dog hollow till shortly smarter midnight last night, and left with 2 features to go had nearly an hour drive home and also wanted to shoot the alarm clock at 4:30 this morning.

But the big difference is I'm not on here bitching. I got up had a coffee or 3 and went to work happy that I got to spend Friday night at the races. And that the track crew put in the work to make an awesome surface considering all the rain we have got recently.

Some will complain if a track is to racey and heavy, others complain if it's to slick. But in the end as long as it's multi groove, smooth and not eating up tires then I'd say it's a great surface.

Who said that the motorsports business was growing.  It just states that there is a Job opening.  perhaps someone quit?  

Did u read the title of this post??? But I would assume that ur right and someone left and they are filling the position.

Mentality of a dinosaur??? I'd say ur just getting pissed cause u ran ur mouth and when he just called u on it it made u look pretty stupid.

I haven't been to skyline for a few years but the last time I was there the Harvest 50 was a really good race. Awesome little high bank bullring track and it was slick as hell.

So what is the difference between a steel block and a super engine? The material the block is made from, and that's is it. The only gain is shedding some weight. Horsepower and torque don't care what you block is made of.

So again what's the difference? It's a excuse for the track to pay less money for the same damn car! You want a true steel block class, make it 358 ci, all steel, stock valve angles, no drysumps, no roller cams. Hmm this is sounding familiar!

Agreed that only true difference is block material. However how many 13* or 9* heads or D3 for the ford guys are on a steel block making 780-815hp? None or nearly none. These cars are primarily 500-650hp 18*&23* engines in mostly older cars some still running oil shocks. That being said why shouldn't these guys be running with the supers? Go watch a night at thunder mountain, Marion center, or hummingbird and that will tell u why. These cars tend to create a caution fest and tear a lot of equipment up as well as a large majority that can't hold a line and are dangerous to run close with. And there's a big difference in price on the parts needed to complete competitively in steel block and what is out there on most super lates.

The steel blocks trash $100 shocks and bend clips on 04 rockets. When they collide with a good super the price to fix the same things on both cars isn't even close.

That being said there are a few damn good and very fast steel blocks in the area. That will run with any super around. It's just the fact that 80% of the drivers in that class have no business being on the track with the supers.

And congrats to Alex on his great run.

 Ive been to Dog Hollow a few times this year and seen him there driving the same way. Also was at Hesston Sunday and he was there spinning out every other lap. I know hes not a Bedford/Hagerstown car.

He's a Dog Hollow and Marion Center local. Impossible to pass as he makes his car about 50' wide.

Congrats to Tony Musolino on his awesome run from the back to take the win. Followed by Dane Laraway, Billy Eash, Wally Fox, and Clate Copeman.
