Episode 376 - Cap Henry Wins at Fremont, USAC in Indiana and Streaming

Hello, everybody.

Hi.

There's the win.

He's back.

Right here.

Live in the flesh.

Yeah.

He decided he'd make the trip over today.

Yeah.

Well, you invited me.

I did.

You think you're only half sick now?

Yeah.

I'm only going to get half sick.

Half sick.

Yeah.

I figured, I didn't want to be mean and get him full sick.

We'll just go half sick.

Right before the fork.

Yeah.

And then he can deal with bullshit later.

I deal with bullshit every time I see you.

That's true.

I had to get that one out.

Nice.

Professional.

We're professional around here.

That's how we do everything.

Hopefully, everyone had a good week and weekend.

It's been interesting around here, unseasonably warm and dry as we get into fall, which is

supposed to start.

Except for Mom Pillar and Janice.

Yeah.

It's not dry there.

Ironically enough, one track we talked about having a big race.

The only place like in the Midwest apparently got rained on Saturday was Montpelier Speedway,

which Dwayne will tell us about here in a few minutes.

This is only Montpelier, too.

Yeah.

I don't know how many times I've been there and gotten rained on.

Seriously.

Yeah.

For our buddy Ryan had good car count and everything looking good looking for a good night and Mother

Nature just did not want to cooperate.

She thought it was March or or something or something or something.

But before we get into too many details about everything happening, we got sponsors

to talk about.

Our first is our friends over at propane.com.

If you haven't already head over to the website, learn more about what propane can

do for you.

Propane and renewable propane reduce carbon emissions while reliably meeting energy needs

in homes, businesses, farms and on the road.

That's why propane is the energy for everyone.

Wow.

Look at the evening.

That sounds very professional.

I know.

I read it right off the website.

So I didn't come up with that propane clean, safe, reliable and affordable energy.

All kinds of different uses for it.

We talked about, you know, last week, the world 100 lots propane being used

down at Aldora this coming weekend.

We got the four crown lots propane probably going to be used down there again.

More likely.

Lots of propane.

Unfortunately, I may cheat it on propane.

Last night we put the stakes in the oven in the broiler way to go instead of using

the grill.

So propane gods are going to kick your apologies to propane for cheating on you.

But easy over there.

Jesus.

Striking me down already.

Look at that.

See?

Propane God speaking.

Instead of listening to us babble on about propane each and every week and probably doing

a subpar job of relaying of how awesome and how helpful can truly be to you.

This email and I'm telling them we're awesome head over to the website propane.com to

learn more about what propane can do for you because as they say propane is energy

for everyone propane.com.

Yep.

Jingle is back.

Tell me we do jingle too.

I know.

I wonder if they ever got one email that says hey we hear about John Dirtner.

Let's just say what I should do is record it just you saying it and then mix it with music

and then get it to the appropriate people because I know it can get to the appropriate

people.

You can do a mixer.

Propane.

A rap.

Slim shady.

Some rave music.

Yeah.

Stealer suck.

Propane.

to watch it, too, because I don't know, like, you got to be

shit. Of course. They're good. They're coming back and

getting ready to leave and coming back. Oh, it's gonna be good.

That's like, like deflated. Okay. We are bill. Check please.

Time to go. It's like, what the hell? It's okay. I got to

watch 41 year old quarterback just throw darts to the

sideline on third down left and right. So he was he was

close. Yeah. It was real close. Somebody. Yeah. It

wasn't anybody on the field. I think I think he was

aiming for the guy holding the clipboard on the

sideline every time like, Hey, I don't want you to run

for the ball. Just throw it right to you. So yeah, we had

a good day for Cleveland. So I see that because that game

was right on near their stealer one. So I was watching

like, you know, it'd be cool if the stealers actually

win and the Browns beat the brave is like, what's

the chances of both of those? Yeah. Well, miracle

world are you living in? Someone who also probably

had a bad Sunday because lots of Bengals fans down by

our friends at the whistle stop. Yes. Bar and Grill

whistlebar and grill.com is the website. Many Bengals

fans down there, Joey, Joey touchdowns. Yeah. Might be

out for a few weeks. I haven't actually three months.

I saw surgery on his toe. Yeah. So it's something

that I like for I see. I see like six to eight

weeks. Yeah. They said possibly up to three

months. So our friends at the whistle stop

Sundays may not be as glorious for them, although

their backup did lead them to a touchdown or, you

know, game winning drive and whatnot with, you know,

all the good stuff. So Joe Burrell is overrated there.

I said, uh-oh. Our friends down at the whistle

stop may not agree with that. That's okay. They're

they're poll tabs are overrated. What's not

overrated is their awesome pizza. They're great

sandwiches, burgers. They got all kinds of other

you know, dishes and dinner dishes. They have

fried chicken some days. They got awesome meat

loaf. Everything I've had there's been for now.

I have. I had dessert there last time. That's right.

You said you got the cookie that was not meant

for two people. Yeah, it was definitely meant

for you. You definitely have to share it. Yeah.

Well, I thought it was meant for like four.

Yeah. Well, it's funny because she's like, oh,

it's just one of those little ones we're

thinking of. Yeah. She goes, it's not that big.

So we ordered two and it's like, holy shit.

Yeah. So now you all got to go to whistle

stop, get some dessert to make sure Duane is

not bullshitting you're right. So this weekend

coming up, four crowns coming up. So three day

show this year. Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Yeah.

So right down the road from Odora, seven miles

south on state route 118. Be sure to hit

up the whistle stop. You can order online,

pick it up at the drive-up window. Yeah.

Dine in, carry out and there's even

door dash to the race track. Right to your

camper. So seeing the main camping lot is sold

out. Oh, not surprised. What across the

street is race haulers or the one north

north lots for race haulers, but the one

across the street. Yep.

Village. The village that said the first

like eight or 10 rows is sold out of that.

Wow. Yeah. So it sounds like a hell of a

crowd. Four crowns been gaining popularity

the last decade for sure.

So well, it's a little different again this

year. Yes. Because you got high limits

360s. Yeah. And 360 has never been there.

Yeah. But they're doing it different Saturday

and, you know, because people can't read

everybody's talking about, well, it's Saturday

it's a long Saturday song. People's already

bitching. I was going to be two AM while

they're changing it because they're going

kind of like one of the big late mile races

like every lap matters. So there's no

qualifying on Saturday at all. Oh, that'll be

nice. So they're going the Thursday

Friday or the Thursday usex sprint midget

race. However, whatever point system they're

doing is going to seed the qualifiers

for Saturday and same thing with high

limits on Friday.

Then the actual only thing that's going to be

qualifying is Silver Crown Silver Crown.

That's Friday night. And if they haven't

been made, that's Friday night to Saturday.

There's no qualifying qualifying races

based on points from your qualifying

nights. Yeah. So

different format. Yes. High limits

may be qualifying on Saturday, but I know

none of the usex is qualifying. That's

sorry. So if you have one division

qualifying, I mean, I don't know how many

high limits they'll have. I mean, the

outlaws are the all stars. Yeah, that's

true. Well, in all stars used to get like

40 cars showing up and the all stars are

done. Yeah. So you

outlaws will be in California still.

Yes. They come back for the following

weekend. Yeah. So I'd say you probably

pick up Caleb Henry may get a few

travelers.

Yeah. But when you're in a break between

races, be sure to head down to the

whistle stop. Yes. And enjoy some awesome

food. If you're in the area, head a little

further south to downtown Greenville.

No bus trip this. No. Nope. Just

dirt track World Championship, right?

I don't know if they're doing that one.

Maybe not. I think so. But I thought

he was just doing three this year, but

maybe not. Yeah. I think he said the dirt

track World Championship one.

Yeah. Kind of flop flash. But if you

go to sure shot, they got 46 actually

50 adult beverage self poor taps.

So you could go check it out. You check

in. They give you a poor card in your

charge by the ounce. There's all kinds

of awesome, awesome beverages to try.

They got all your regular domestic type

beers. They got IPAs. They got seasonal

stuff, local stuff, stout's porters,

couple ciders usually and usually

assaults are on hand. Again, it

makes it nice. You could just try,

you know, a basic or not a basic

but one of those fancier type of

beer. That's right. You may not

want to pay for the entire pint for

and you can just try it by the ounce.

That's right. And if you do, you

get a little squirt. If you like it,

go ahead, finish off your pint.

Otherwise, you can rinse out your

glass, go on to the next one till

you find one you like. So it works

out real well and you can have a

little more fun if you go up to

the bullseye game lounge. They got

24 arcade games for duck pin bowling

lanes, all self serve. Awesome

time to be had up there. Go with

your friends, have a little

challenge, have a little fun.

There's Papa shot. There's the

Jurassic Park games. Pretty

intense. They got Motorcycle

Race. They got a pretty cool

shooting game called Big Shot.

That one's a lot of fun too. So

check it out. Reloadable cards

available at a kiosk upstairs.

Take your drinks up there. You

can take a pizza up there if

you want and have some good

times if you have a fall

time, winter times coming.

Sometimes you want to do some

of those group outings,

corporate outings, things like

that. They got some venue

spaces, the Butler room,

Oakley Lounge, two game lounge

rooms and a few other things.

They got packages available for

catering and all that stuff.

So right now, if you go, you can

get a nooner. That's right.

Oh, that's by the ounce. Yeah.

Or a full pint. Yes. Yes.

Speaking of the banquet rooms

and stuff, I know for a fact

one of our sometimes listeners

but a loyal area sprint

car fan. He supports

AFCS quite a bit, but our

buddy. Well, I don't know.

I don't know if it's a surprise

or not, but there's going to be

a part party there over the

weekend. Nice.

The one day. Yeah.

I don't know if it's a surprise

party or not.

Yeah, better keep your mouth

shut on it. Yeah.

Case somebody's listening.

Yeah. I'm not sure.

Sure shot taphouse.com

is the website.

You go to the drink and eat

tab. Go to tap wall line up

to see what they got.

And if you want to look into

the more

games stuff, there's games

activities tab, venue spaces

tab for all the rooms and areas

available to have your events

at. So be sure to check them out.

Again, four crowns going on.

I know a race fan taken advantage

of having, you know, a little party.

Yeah, so you could do.

That's right.

I wish we live closer or I

definitely would because I got invited

to the party, but it's Friday.

During the day, probably.

Yeah, and you'll be working.

I thought actually we was looking

at renting one of those campers

just for sits and giggles because

they had some and I had to spend

a little bit of money for work

for my taxes and I thought

that'd be perfect.

That sounds like a company outing.

Yeah, but I forgot.

I got two people off on Friday.

Ah, so it's like, well, shit.

Adult life hits again.

Yeah, it sucks.

Sucks being an adult being responsible.

Yeah, damn customers.

It could be all right.

Yeah.

Oh, well, is what it is.

I could say Friday night and sorry,

but it's like nascar at that point.

Yeah.

Not getting your money's worth.

No.

All right.

So a little racing happened this weekend.

Few things in our area going on.

Few things.

Not in our area going on.

Delaney made his way to Indiana.

Got was one for two on hitting race.

Well, two for two on hitting the races,

but one for two on seeing the race.

I wasn't sure.

I can't believe one guy rained out.

Yeah.

But yeah, I went to Circle City for the

Ashley Albertson Memorial race.

Third one already.

It's hard to believe, but it's cool event.

I mean, they have her last race car there

and they do some fundraising for different things.

And, you know, and they put up like a hundred bucks

and win a heat race.

It was so much for hard charge.

You know, they do extra awards and it's all open wheels.

You sack sprints, you sack D2 midgets

and then the all star circle champion TQ midgets.

Good car counts.

I think it's 32 28 and 22.

I like Circle City.

It's becoming one of my favorite.

One of my most favorite Indiana tracks instantly.

I mean, every time I've been there, it's been excellent race.

Seen one of my best late mile races.

I've seen a long time there a couple of years ago.

Facilities nice.

The food's nice.

Restrooms are, you know, I mean, they just keep it nice.

And if that race wasn't a contender for race of the year,

Friday night, I'll kiss it because that was a hell of a battle

up front.

I mean, there's four to six guys just battling out.

I mean, two wide, three wide slider for slider.

The cushion, I mean, it was one of those turned for the

cushion had to be eight, 10 inches tall, if not a foot

tall, same deal on three or one and two.

And here comes old gimp, you know, old camp, you know,

on the crutches and racing with one foot.

And it's funny.

He would really want that big of a factor until last towards

in and I mean, he's bouncing off that cushion bicycle and

popping one wheel and he did get cast off.

But Justin Grant pulled off the win.

I mean, him and Mitchell Moles was just this slide for

slide every corner and Mitchell, like he said, it was

just like a chess match between those two.

Then Chase Stockin was in there at the end, KTJ at one

time, I mean, four or five times the last eight, 10 laps

they was coming three wide off turn three or turn four,

you know, and it was just spectacular.

And Justin Grant, I tell you, you know, I've, I've been

on him for years about crashing into people in that,

but I think he's gaining a lot of respect to people

of just the toughness of, I mean, like he said,

he goes cast is off now.

But he says, so now it really hurts to apply the breaking.

He says he still can't only reply at about 70% but so much

tough.

I mean, yeah, he's out there still doing a cage stand

even after he wins with broken foot still.

And just, I mean, yeah, it was, it was a, and I didn't

see him hit one car.

I mean, which is amazing.

He's driving better with the broken foot and he is not

crashing into shit anymore.

Maybe learning his lesson.

I don't know.

Justin Grant, Mitchell Moles, Briggs Danner.

Yes.

Danner came up on the end too.

He's Stocking Gunner Setzer, your top five.

And Danner and Chase started it because there's a big

lip while during the cautious Chase was driving in

then Danner and find, well, then they'd go above

and then come shooting down.

Chase was the first one.

Well, then, you know, Mitchell slid Grant three

or four times and then, you know, Grant had the lead

lost the lead.

So then Grant started doing it at the end and, but yeah,

I mean, Stocking started came from pretty far back

and so Danner and they was just, I mean, right up

on the fence.

I mean, like, then shooting down off the cushion

popping wheelie down the back stretch.

I mean, it was just spectacular.

Then in the D2 midgets, Jacob Boxle, which

telling you he's probably, he's got to be the

most improved driver of the year.

And the D2's and, I mean, he's been running

great in the national midgets.

18th, the first for the win for Jacob Boxle.

Thanks.

Had trouble all night.

It card didn't want to run in hot laps.

Didn't want to run really well in a heat race.

So started 18th in one and then Logan Prickett

won the TQC.

He's part of the Boiler up program that

Laila's in.

He's on the well funded Purdue because they

actually funded his sprint car and his TQ

bench on the well funded Purdue engineering

team.

Nice.

You sec made their way down to Hobstot Saturday

night where Logan CV got to win for $20,000.

Yes.

And he was bound with the grant.

And then again, I mean, it was, I watched

that on TV when I got back home from out

pillar.

Yeah.

That's CV.

Somebody's been kind of, I want to say

off his game, but not the year.

Logan CV's been wanting, you know, yeah, few

years.

Well, and it's weird because we talk about, uh, I

feel like we've been talking about Justin

Grant winning races every freaking week.

Oh yeah.

He's won a lot.

But Kyle Cummins is leading the points.

Yes.

Mitchell Walls, the second, Logan CV, third

and Justin Granson fourth.

Yeah.

So it's kind of wild how the points

have fallen into place.

I know Cummins had a lot of success early

in the year, which helps.

But I mean, he's still running good.

He finished, which is weird tri-state.

Kyle Cummins finished fifth and he started

first.

That doesn't happen.

He missed the race from his injury.

Well, actually almost two because he did the

provisional and start and parked basically

then he missed the next one.

So he's down there a little bit.

Yeah.

And that's, that's a hell of a battle right

now.

And there, those guys are tough.

I mean, yeah.

It's weird.

They only got 26 cars for 20 grand

to win on Saturday down at tri-state.

I know it's a little bit out of the way

for quite a bit of people.

Well, you had Lincoln Park racing.

You had, uh, Montpelier, which I think

there's close to 30 some Montpelier

and some of the guys that was racing with

them on Friday night, didn't want to go,

didn't go clear down there and just went

to Montpelier one time because it paid

six grand to win was going to pay six

grand to win till mother nature

decided to not leave Montpelier.

Yeah.

Me and it rained and rain and they,

they worked their ass off.

I will say that he milked me in and

so I see he was getting some shit

because he kept posting, we are going

to get it in.

Well, you know, they had the track

sealed and it was what letting it run

off and it rained after it was supposed

to be out of the area that it rained

after well then five o'clock is done

and I looked at the radar.

Nope.

No 10% chance 10% chance and they

started working it in was watching

them with the tractors and that working

in then all of a sudden it rained

and rained hard after they opened

it up basically working it in, which

that's the one that killed it.

I mean they try and they even tried

for 45 minutes after that and it was

just, you know, as overcast, never did

get sunny as a little chilly and it

just, it just wouldn't dry.

Yeah.

And they had 6000 to win like they're

one of the biggest sprint car races

ever.

Yeah, there.

Yeah.

And they had some good modifies,

which surprised me because Butler

is paying high dollar for modifies

and but Sherman's or and all them

are there.

Dalton Lane was there.

Tony Anderson.

Yeah.

I mean, they had the, you know, a lot

of super tough modifies too.

Yeah.

So bummer.

And like I said, it's we're in

drought conditions here.

Yeah.

I was surprised.

It's one place that basically

ran.

I mean, yeah, Anderson got ring

delayed and I think Lincoln Park

got ring delayed because there's

a little shower came through Indiana

that kind of popped up out of

nowhere that day, but it just

would not leave Mount Pillar.

I was sitting there.

So we got there about

four when the pick gates open

and it started raining

then it quit.

And I kept it rain three

times after that.

Yeah.

I mean, it just wouldn't leave.

Yeah, it's wild.

Like just as Mount Pillar.

Do you know I've been caught

in a tornado there?

I've been caught in a high

windstorm there.

Well, it was like the world

100 Friday night.

We're sitting around after

the first feature

and it started raining.

And it was like, no chance

of rain all weekend.

And it was like, what in the

you look at the radar.

There's one little cell

that moved over Aldora.

Luckily, it wasn't that hard

or anything.

Yeah, we slowed us down

for like 10 minutes, maybe,

but it really didn't do

anything to impact

like Mount Pillar got.

And it's just like, what in the hell?

You know, we're in total

drought conditions up here, at least.

It's wild this late in the year.

Yeah.

But yeah, we're still

having 80 plus degree days.

Yes.

And we're supposed to be in the

high 70s, the low 80s

for it looks like next 10, 12 days.

Yeah.

I think Monday next week

is the start of fall

and it's supposed to be like 86.

Yeah.

Which it's like, what in the hell?

Yeah.

Global warming.

I'm sorry.

Climate change.

It's not global warming.

That would that would assume

it's a problem for everybody.

Climate change.

It's just our problem.

Right.

Remember?

Right.

So but it'll make sense

because sometimes in July

and June it was cold.

Yeah.

I was wearing a hoodie at the dream

and a hoodie at the world.

Yeah.

Go figure.

It was cold world with a hundred

weekend.

Yeah.

Well, I was I bore short

Saturday night with a hoodie

thinking I'll be fine.

And I regretted it.

I should have wore freaking jeans.

It was cold.

But fun.

Nonetheless.

Yeah.

So other thing going on

kind of close to us,

so close to us.

One of our local tracks

Fremont was hosting

the All-Star Circuit of

Champions for two nights

for the Jim Ford Classic

Friday and Saturday two nights

two races finale

two nights two races

one winner one winner craziness

Cap Henry.

Yes.

Both nights Saturday night

and look like he was going to

win then all of a sudden he

yeah him and kill Thomas

came in if you listen

to everybody in the pits.

Yeah.

Kill Thomas had a hell of a

charge with like

I mean coming to the checker

it was you know

unknown even yes and Cap

was able to get off of Ford

just fast enough.

Gail made made the past

but it just didn't stick.

Yeah.

But yeah that's his last four

All-Star races he's entered

he swept he swept the attic

ambush.

That's right.

He did not go to the Wayne

County race.

Yeah.

So he's won four or last

five All-Star races

and the one he didn't win

he wasn't there.

Yeah.

And yeah look sells just

to highlight from Saturday

but look like a Jim Ford

type of track.

Yeah.

Back in the slow motion for sure.

Yeah it was wild slick

black slick surface Jim Ford

always liked it like that.

Yeah.

You know love it hated

whatever but it just seemed

maybe fitting you know

maybe not a lot of people

happy about it but hey

you still got a good result

at the end of the race.

So yeah.

Yeah.

Came down to the big battle

and then John Ivy speaking

of old style Fremont

won the 305s.

Wow.

The one a main

because they did double a

man's in such Snyder

won the other one

but the one was

one Snyder was in our

buddy Chad Wilson

charged from 12th the third.

Yeah.

The trucks Craig dipman.

Gotcha.

Got a truck win

and Steve Miller.

Oh it was like Oak Shade

reunion night.

Yeah.

No kidding.

Good Lord night.

Geez.

Yeah.

So yeah.

Cap one what five grand

Friday night.

Yeah.

Ten grand Saturday Saturday.

So like you said

pretty good.

Couple weeks of racing for

Cap 17 or 18 wins.

I think it's 17 though.

Yeah.

18 wins on the air.

Yeah.

Pretty cool.

I didn't hear much

otherwise.

Well the points for the

All-Stars

was settled

which is kind of

an interesting arrangement

will say different

because they do this split

the new car owner points

and their championship there

and there's the driver's

points

and I don't know

how they split it

because I think it's

25,000 to win

but I believe

that it's split.

I think each one

pays 1250

and if you win both

this holiday but

two different ones

Kale

Thomas

his team

the 49 team

won the car owners one

because if we remember

right trade Jacob started

the year in that

didn't last

and Kale Thomas come in

so that team won

the car owners one

and the drivers one

Caleb Henry

took the drivers

the championship

because Kale Thomas

wasn't in first few races

of Kale

at the start of the year

in 49

he would have been

champion

yes

but yeah

so split

I

it used to be 50-50

or close to 50-50

I don't know how it is now

I'm looked

I didn't realize

is doing two car

two points

or maybe

and I don't know

maybe it's the whole

points deal too

I mean

because I did read

I think I read somewhere

where the points

championship

so it was going by drivers

or car owner points

not driver points

I don't know

yeah

I'm not sure

but

but I know the crown

Caleb Henry

the drivers points

champion

so I mean

there has to

I would think

there would be some

type of split

yeah

sure

yeah

to be

determined on that

I guess I haven't

heard specifically

and I'm looking at

post right now

nothing really says

one way or the other

what what it all means

but

yeah

congrats to

both teams

I guess

but

you know Caleb

had a hell of a year

Kale

and obviously

kind of not starting

the year off

with them

and

losing a ride

which

opened them up

for

jumping into

you know

into that car

right

we know

Kale's always been

looking to race

with a

kind of full-time

series

yes

or more so

so

yeah

interesting

stuff

yes for sure

yes trying to read

the rules and see

what the points

but it doesn't really say

interesting

I was a

okay

there's a guy

yeah

there's a guy named

Joseph Saldana

who got arrested

in Putnam County

but it looks like

he's got a lipstick

Ohio address

oh no

sorry

I just came across this

and I'm like

Putnam County Ohio

Sheriff's office

did I look at it

so Saldana

and I was like

what

and I said

Joseph Saldana

I was like

because he was just in

Fremont

right

it's not

Putnam County Indiana

is it

because Putnam County

Indiana is

where he would live

Lipstick Ohio

is what it says

the address

where they went to

serve an arrest warrant

so

that's why I was confused

because I was like

oh shit

Joey was just in town

because he was at

they did like

an all-star reunion

yeah

which had a lot of points

yes

looked like

a really cool time

I saw Joey was there

was Frank Kerr there

Frankie was there

yep

Jack Hewitt was there

Jack Hewitt

obviously check coming on

yeah

champ is there

looks like a really cool time

actually

Rob Cheney

seeing him there

yeah

so

yeah

if the all-star circuit champions

will award team owners

owners

question mark

or

quotation marks

and sprint car drivers

drivers

quotation mark

points based upon

question mark quotation mark

yeah

what a difference there

that same thing

points based upon

their finish

in each series race

event as set forth

in section 8

of the rule book

we're getting official now

at the end of the series

at the end of the scheduled season

the all-star circuit champion

shall announce one

all-star circuit champion

owner champion

and one driver's champion

posted championship prize money

will be awarded

solely to the car owners

based on the final

end of the season

owner's championship standing

is based upon their cumulative point

total for the series

tiebreakers for owner points

and driver points

will be

in the following order

number of wins

number second place

number of thirds

and so on

until the tie is broken

so sounds like the owner's points

is what matters

it's kind of what it sounds like

they have a driver's points

Anna

or section H is

but

we'll see section H

I see

it's numbered

interesting

yeah

it's numbered

so there is no section H

because it's all numbered

it's like

section one

three four

okay

I gotta ask you

I'm not just doing it

to be a dick

although it's a little bit

of what I'm asking you

are you sure

it's the current year

deal

it's not

yeah

twenty twenty five

okay

that's not but everything

yeah

it's like

dude

this is Arctic

can at the top

that's like five years old

yeah

no

no ball star

it's a section H of this

there's no H is all

two point four

two point five

nice

interesting

so

that would mean

section H

there's

three point six point four

section H

but that's at

as a nothing new

championship

so if you go to owner

Roodsick would be one

yep

and racers for life

is number two

that's

that the one on one

yes

okay

and then

Lane racing is three

Brian Grove is four

so

interesting

yeah

I don't know

I guess we'll

Dwayne

Dwayne knows

who to talk to

to get the official answer

on that

so

yes

I don't know

we'll

we'll see what

out split

but

there is a driver's champion

I don't think it's paid

but

just upon the finish

she was at four

so there's actually

H

words

posted championship prize

money will be awarded

solely to the car

owners

based on the final

end of the season

owners

champion

standings

so

that sounds like

sounds like the owners

what

gets paid

that sounds like

the drivers

championship

you just get a title

trophy

cool

but also

maybe not cool

depends who you are

I guess

I don't know

that's for others

to battle

we won't worry

about that

right now

no

what else is going on

we had

so that's kind of

butler

raced

yes

Tyler Gunn

Tyler won

that's right

Knox County

raced

last night

yeah

Tyler Gunn

won there too

that was a fast race

yeah

they were done

by like

930

at 18 cars

and it looked like

they took a bath

but

I don't know

from

some of the videos

I seen

there wasn't anybody

in at least

the bottom half

for the stands

anywhere

got you

so I'm not sure

I've never been there

and I don't know

what all happened

but I know

I think

they just kind of came

from the healer

was not happy

I know that

got you

because he had a picture

driving around the track

with one finger

sticking out

saying

I had so much fun racing

with fast

last night

nice

somebody's like

yeah

I don't know what the rule

is this

and what the rule

and

so evidently there was some

I've done some controversy

I

I don't know

I don't watch it

I didn't see

but

Tyler Gunn

two wins

two different cars

last night

was his family car

the

one car

and two big wins

because it paid

thirty seven

hundred and twenty five

dollars to win

at Butler

well

that the

Reeves Memorial

well okay

and his four thousand

to win

at

so he

knocks County

yeah

yeah I think

Knox County

kind of came back

from the dead

a couple years ago too

so

I hope they didn't lose

their aspect

time

yeah

excuse me

we're keeping you up

Elliott

I was past my bed time

now it's probably the

Angels N.V.M.

sipping on

kind of local

but also kind of not local

but in the state of Ohio

Jim Dunn Memorial

yes

Muskegum County

a bunch of late

a lot of guys

went there

yeah a bunch of late

model guys

even the

team Dirtner cars

that's right

they were there

in attendance

in the big big

blue boat

bull bulldozer

bulldozer

was there

yeah

I'm

interesting enough

Devon won

Devon Marine

okay different

not your Devon

not our Devon

yeah

now our Devon

ended up pulling off

with 10 laps to go

so he overheated

was running top five

I think to start the race

but

had some contact

those those boys over

in Zanesville

can be a little rough

sometimes

it sounds like

sounds like racing

an oak shake

yeah pretty much

well

just bigger

and dustier

I think

if that's possible

so I told Devon

I'm taking a drink of water

they don't call it

duskegum

for no reason

but anyway

yeah Devon

ran got the win

hometown track

home home backyard

yeah

literally

legitimately

probably drove the car

from the shop there

but kudos to him

10,000 the win

think they had 34 cars

on hand

so pretty good car

that's a big one

Jerry Bowersock

was there

yeah

Eddie Carrier

I think

yeah

Eddie Carrier

Junior was there

Tyler Carpenter

yeah

so good

good car count

quite a ways away

I know for our buddy

Devon

so

I see Brayden

made the feature too

provisional

for Ironman

so

still

no

nope

he's a kid

got to keep him honest

let's

got to keep him honest

got to keep him on

I don't like provisional

so you know that

I know

so tell

tell Brayden

he shouldn't have started

the feature

yeah

so he parked that shit

put it on the trailer

where it belongs

got to keep him humble

man

got to keep him home

yeah

anyway

a word of outlaws

were also in action

I guess I should say

one more

Lawrenceburg

Speedway raced

yeah

Northern All-Star

Northern

right

Northern All-Stars

yeah

Northern All-Stars

yeah

the whole series

James Essex

brought back

which whatever

Josh Rice

won

I believe

he did

and one

his brother

a second

yeah

as I say

I figured you'd have to

bring that into it

yes

but I believe

that was also

the championship

it was

and he won the championship

I think he's won it

two times

already

paid I think

what

it's five or six

I think it's five

grand to win

the other night

yeah

yeah was

they only had like

21

or 24 car

yeah they're like

23 24

but

like a pretty good race

yeah

and I know

to be honest

Lawrenceburg doesn't really

advertise what they got

going on a lot

very well

so

I didn't even know

what was happening

the new people at

Lawrenceburg

are bad about

getting out

what's going on

yeah

so

may have ended up

with more cars

somehow

because it's really

not that hard

for guys

up this way

to get down

that well

and

you'd think

all the Florence guys

went

which most of them

were

I mean

Trevor Landrum

and

yeah

a lot of those guys

obviously the rice

Josh Rice

Florence car

so

they had a lot of those guys

but

yeah

it's definitely

not as much

as I would have thought

but

Crystal Michigan

also race

their

finale

Great Lakes Nationals

they call it

I believe

looking to see

who I want

I cannot

freaking remember

no Kurt Spalding

won the Modified's

a butler

so he was that butler

ah

yes

of course

they don't post

results

everything

they even have like

late models

yeah

oh yeah

that day

yeah

that was their

oh

McCallier one

I know

the one night

I guess

I did see that

or maybe

they just race

Saturday late months

I can't remember

but

I think it's one of those

deals

where they do

practice

one day

I call

or he

is one day

features

one day

which is stupid

yeah

that's

the Michigan way

of

doubling

now can you

have for three days

yeah

it's doubling

your back

back gate

pay

pretty much

which

I've had this conversation

with Michigan

people

will say

well

they're flagmands

no

smarter than that

me and

TJ

sideways

actually

back when they were doing

thirty two thousand

for the

merit race

and all that

and that's exactly

what they did

right

and

and he said

yeah

they wouldn't be able

to pay a purse

right

in Michigan

without doing

that

because

that's just the difference

in racing

up there

so right

but anyway

I know

McCallier one

Saturday

Friday Saturday

just said

I don't really know

get better results

Crystal

sorry

and

my race up there

this we can do

a Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant

yeah

it's paying

pretty decent money

yes

word about

lost

print cars

in action

out

West

Cali for

you

Bakersfield

but Kofo

getting himself

the win

and then

the following night

North Pole

nightmare

the

Alaskan assassin

the snowman

Bill Balock

to

got a great winners

got to win at

Paris

pretty awesome

that was what

Paris's first

their first trip back

in a long time

or so

yeah

quite a while

so

because there's only

getting like

1518 cars

and they had 20 some

they started

24 in a feature

they had 20 something

the other night

so

yeah

Balock

gravel second

of course

can't

just count him

but

buddy

Kofoid third

Garrett

Williamson

fifth

but he's been

great

that'll

fifth

yeah

he's been killing

the same deal

gravel started

out hotter

in helm

buddy

started out slow

but

he's really closed

the points

I mean

yeah

I don't think he's

gonna win

I mean

they have some

races left

but

144 back

buddies in second

yeah

he's closed

it a lot

but think

about this

he's

raced

56 races

they both started

56

gravel

has 13 wins

buddy has

11

that's

pretty close

yeah

gravel

has

48 top

fives

buddy has

35 top

fives

which

was bad

that's seven

that's only

seven different

top

10s

gravel has

54

in 56

starts

and buddy

has

48

top

10s

that's just

like

it's not

much of a difference

like you said

it's

those races

where you're

outside

top

10

that you salvage

just had friends

a shitty night

buddy

yeah

it's just

you know

at one time

he's like

man

maybe I

maybe I'm not

good

or you remember

yeah

in the

you know

like

may

like

maybe I

ain't good enough

to do this

you know

I mean he was

doubting himself

and

whatever they

come to Jesus

meeting

they had

I mean

maybe

Jesus did come down

to him

and talk to him

because they've been

yeah

they've been

gelled

I mean they've

what

whatever

they was

missing

they found

in there

which is great

I mean

we all know

buddy

had talent

anybody

don't think

he has talent

don't

know that much

about racers

yeah

I mean

hate to say it

but

but he's

one of those guys

that

everything he said

and he's been

fast in

and

so

it would have been interesting

to see what

it started out

as hot as

gravel

but

hey

you never know

they're still

still a month ago

should happens

gravel had a

terrible

into the season

and gravel had

bad luck at the King's Royal

so you'd finish

wasn't bad luck

but

yeah

to start his night

didn't end so well

yeah

you never know

I mean

you got

Pennsylvania

that's why the race

and yeah

yeah

but I think the national opens

just show up points

that's the thing

I hate about it

as some of those

are just show up points

and

any special format

it's just show up points

so it's the

champion of the regular

season

yeah

champion of the

of the year

because

King's Royal

Knoxville

those they throw at the

points

because

they don't give

provisionals

which you hate

if they give provisionals

so I don't know

I don't know what the

right answer is

it should be

I know what you're gonna

points for every race

yeah

full points

honestly

at that high of a level

why wouldn't you

I mean you're the best

in the world

right

you should make the

shit

sorry

exactly

I'll give you a shivers

inverted or not

get your ass to the

front

I mean

Donnie shots

and have any problem

for like what

10 or 11 years

in a row

getting the front

knock

yeah

I mean

Ryan Tim

so you didn't have

a problem

getting to the front

no

and he's not

even a wall

driver

yeah

he's supposed to suck

yeah

he's a kid

what's he know

he's supposed to be

terrible

it's not a wall

for a high limit

not in the high

limit room

he's not even old enough

for the high

limit

that's right

Christ

that's a question

if I limit

series

what's the youngest

your drivers

can be

because technically

they can't be

in high level

there's laws

chase

Randall's

ain't it

somebody's breaking

the law

fastest chicken

in the West

or something

quickest chicken

quickest

chicken

all right

anyway

people that aren't

chickens

light model

drivers

word of

outlaw

light models

in action

down

in

the southeast

to believe

both were Georgia

I know the second

I need more

need more is Georgia

right

yeah

I believe so

need more

geography lessons

I guess is

what I would say

but

Nick Hoffman

more cowbell

gets his fifth

win of

2025

he did

and need more

and then Saturday

night

a little bit of a surprise

Air Force

Ashton winger

that's right

we took the lead

like seven

eight laps

in

and

I think you led

from there

so

I saw a little

bit of a replay

on that

was a

great race there

for

a few laps

but was early

in the race

and then

yeah

looks like he was able to

take about the race

on Thursday

I did

what is it

Castro flow

and I

are not cast

right

and where

but flow night

in America

that's right

it's got

Blumquist Memorial

yes

thank you

I did forget

about that

I watched

and I forget

who I know

was an

RTJ

yes

I believe

shit

I don't remember

it was

Davenport

wasn't

yeah

it was

Davenport

was I think

an RTJ

I watched

it on and off

and

I watched it

and I had

I had

think

who I can

I could say

whatever

no one out

there's gonna

fucking

believe me

anyway

so

yeah

that's right

cause O'Neill

and

Marlar

Cameron Marlar

was coming

on O'Neill

and you thought

maybe they're

gonna do some

but just enough

lap traffic

dot

lap traffic

dodging

and

Davenport

got the win

so

yes

yeah

they had

41 car

show

so

they had some

good field

yes

good field

yeah

I didn't watch

much of it

Vic Hill had

a tough

week

I think

he lost

a nephew

like

in the middle

of that

like

the day

or two

before

I think

that race

and he's

obviously

kind of

in charge

of bull's

gap

and

track

prep

and all that

so

I'm sure

it was

a tough week

on him

for sure

did you

have it on

when the

street stock features

on before

the big

no

I did not

had cops

and victory lane

Oh is that

the one

where they

disqualified

the guy

yeah then

then they

re-qualified

them or something

yes

then

made the final decision

what was the cops

for it

I guess I never

heard

well

security

because

security

because

I guess

you know

second place guy

was all

pissed off

because

I guess a rule

something about

you can't

have an open

back in

I think

Oh

or you can't

have a covered

back in

and I think

he did

then they're

like

well that's

I don't know

we's getting

bits and pieces of

it then

the winner

was the winner

then he wasn't

then he was again

then he wasn't

then third place

thought

both is going to be

disqualified

so cops

and they literally

had the cops make

the final decision

to look at the

rule book

and make the

which I've never

heard of a

local

what the

fuck

yeah

I've never heard of

the local

police

department

making a decision

from the cops

to be like

top three

come here

yeah

fight

walks away

the winner

in front of the grandstand

let's go

whichever one

you can stand up

and take a taser

is going to win

no biting

no kicking

take your one

two

foul

and let's go

no checking the oil

no shots to the nuts

otherwise

game on

it's like

yeah

I don't know

it was

it and

that was tennis

we did that a

bull's gap

on floor racing night

yeah

it's funny

oh Jesus

the announcers

were just

I mean

they was

just laughing

like

okay

well

but they're

just trying to get

the guy to

interview the cop

and they're like

yeah

it's probably

not a good career

move

why'd you

pick him

as the winner

yeah

well

maybe as his cousin

or maybe as his

brother

and had a

fucking doesn't

doughnut

sitting off to the side

going

hey over here

somebody probably paid

for somebody's campaign

before it's like

hey remember

what I donated

your campaign

were you

down at the

local hall

were you voted

in a share

if that's what

I thought

I remember

down at

pancake supper

with a rinse

yeah

so was boss

hog there

with the fucking

cat

and everything

Jesus Christ

oh

geez

out

you know

who should have been there

you know

what's his name

be for

D justice

should have been there

that's right

what is it

got my

charge

geez

six pack

yeah

I love that movie

but yeah

so I don't know

it was

it was quite entertaining

yeah

sounds like

everybody was

laughing

it was

very fun

I

I bet you

if you look it up

in the record

book

there's

not too many races

that a cop

had to determine

yeah

the rules

and who

is going to win

I did not

yeah

I didn't

know

I saw

like

a clip of it

and I thought

someone said

someone from

South Carolina

so I thought it was

oh yeah

it was

is somebody

that run

usually run

there

yeah

so I thought

it was like

down in

the Carolina

somewhere

and I was just like

oh

it was a regular

fucking Saturday

night

Carolina

whatever

oh no

is during the

Castro night

okay

yeah

let the cops

pick the winner

well

hey

it happens

High limit

racing at

Lernerville

this past

weekend

was it

was this the

Don Martin

they call it

now

or

no

remember

no

Don Martin

was during

Commonwealth clash

that's what this one is

yeah

Don Martin's

usually after

the royal

right

yeah

two nights

racing

Mr.

I'm sorry

two nights

racing

two first time

winners

oddly enough

doesn't seem like

they should be

first time

winners

but

I guess

technically

first time

points winners

because

it sounds like

Tanner Thorsen

I think

I saw that

was the disclaimer

like

first time

points

winner

or maybe

it was personally

I don't know

but

anyway

I suppose

it was

both

first time

winners

I didn't know

if they won

some kind of

kind of

I suppose

they like

four nights

four

last

four races

suppose

it's first time

winners

with Highland

that's right

because

Ryan

Tim's one

and

yeah

well

writes a one

the night before

so

yeah

or

the night

before

the Tuskey

so

last three races

have been

three different

one

three new winners

but

$30,000

and I

I watched some

of his

it was

kind of

like

well

he started up

front

yeah

is leading

then

he dropped

like

fourth or

fifth

yeah

and it was like

okay

where should

he run

because

he was

trying out

lines

and he found

this thing

on the

bottom

that was

yeah

then all

sudden

he came out

nowhere

well like

sweet

came out

nowhere

on the top

side

yeah

and they're like

okay

sweet's

going to blow

by

Rico

and win

then all

sudden

Rico went

from first

to fourth

and

a turn

yeah

and

on something on the

bottom

and he is

hooked up

yeah

he started

on the

pole

and

looked the

part

for a while

but

yeah

ended up

like

Dwayne said

going back

a bit

coming back

and taking

the win

yeah

it's cool

another guy

who's

having a

lot of

success

and

in a car

everyone

knows

Ryan Smith

yes

finished third

but

he's had a lot

of good runs

in that

69

K car

he led

a lap

to

and he's

only been

in that car

a handful

of times

this year

yes

so yeah

actually

it's pretty good race

I watched

mm-hmm

yeah

and I had a

decent car

how

yeah

like Schaefer

was

stayed there

didn't go

the all-stars

yeah

which I

knew he was

I mean

yeah

it's his

backyard

yeah

probably has

to at

that point

yeah

so their points

just kind of

interesting

right

so is

only night

I'm sorry

ridgid

sons

because technically

it's

owners

19 points

behind

Rico

and

Brad sweet

25 points

behind

yeah

is

so pretty cool there

I'm

in Eldora

this weekend

yes

well

speaking of Eldora

did you see

Jason

personally

what he's

taken on

everything

race and everything

he is

racing

literally

he's

gonna be the

GQ

to the

four crown

this year

yeah

midget

sprint

silver crown

non-wings

print

and

a 360

is around

362

I don't know

who's

yeah

because they've been playing musical drivers a lot in that car

so

or I was thinking

maybe another

horseman

one

because horseman

has to

know

because I know

mason

hanging

and supposed to be racing

I talked to mason

actually came up

and talked to me

a Kokomo

a couple weeks ago

and said

he was racing

Eldora

well

and that

but

I know

hanging in

or

I know

horseman

got another sprint car

but

the

that was

based in

Archibald

Ohio

a couple weeks ago

nice

a cow

is sold out now

okay

sold out to horseman

because horseman

like

hey

if you want to come

drive it

you can drive it

just let me know

when

that cool

so maybe be

that one too

I don't know

yeah

I don't know

but yeah

it could be

51

yeah

I'm not sure

I don't know

sure

it's probably gonna be

a fast one

yeah

horseman

stuff's

usually

no slouch

so

but yeah

you

you could be right

it definitely

could be the

51

yeah

but days

and personally

taking on

all four

main classes

and the

360 class

he'll be in

five different classes

all weekend

yeah

pretty crazy

so

he's a wheelman though

he's

is he's

pretty talented

he's been known

to race at all

and just

you know

he had pretty emotional

win the other night

I think

like his dad

was there

I mean

you just think

where he was

a couple years ago

and

I mean

you're still talking to

a kid

and he's still a kid

but he

might be 20 now

yeah

I don't even know

you're still 20

that

you know

a couple years

know

wasn't even sure

he's gonna live

let alone

never walk again

yeah

I was diagnosed

to not

really walk again

that

you know

just

was determined

and

did therapy

big time

and got lucky

you know

got blessed

enough

that

he did walk again

and move again

and

yeah

you know

so that whole story

is just

amazing

and still be

that talented

yeah

still get opportunities

and still not

lose the stuff

I mean

sometimes

when you have

a bad injury

like that

you just

yeah

let it get to you

yeah

I mean

like

physically you're fine

but your head

may not be

yeah

all the way back

from it

and like

you just

can't face

one

going as

as hard as

maybe in the past

right

yeah

so

Google's them

and it's cool to see

I mean

every time

I've seen him

before

and after

I mean

he's always been

super nice

you know

good kid

I think he's

you know

I think he's

always respected

his stuff

and

where he's came from

type thing

not like

some of the

yeah

really being one

you think of

wrecking

shit

no

I mean

he's always been

really respectful

very polite

when I've seen him

before

and after

and

it's cool to see

you know

situations like

that

be good

yeah

back when

like he said

earlier

in the deals

like

yeah

I want to come back

to race

but

right now

we just got to get

the

moving my

you know

his side

he couldn't even

move the

one side

for a while

so

I mean

yeah

the news thing

I have

you see

Mike Marlar

walking away

yes

immediately

from

Skyline Motor Sports

Tyler Brunning's dad

Greg Brunning's team

sounds like they're

still going to be

yeah

they're so

sponsoring

yeah

he's going back

to Ronnie Delk

who's

starting up a

team again

or maybe never

fully closed

this team

probably going to

do a hidden

miss schedule

not going to run

a full-time

national series

is going to

but supposedly

Greg Brunning

still going to be

involved

sponsoring

them

and in that team

so yeah

it's kind of weird

that it was like

a

immediate

departure

but we're still

working with

them kind of thing

but

I don't know

maybe that's

just

how it works

and then

that's kind of

the question

is

a burning

going to

keep two

cars

or just

go back down

to one

and

with Tyler

and then

the sponsor

Marlar

and say

well

at least I

don't have

right

all the

shit to pay for

I could just

pay for

a portion

of the shit

right

so

I don't know

interesting

yeah

which

Marlar's

kind of

always been

more

that guy

anyway

but

yeah

I guess

I forgot

Davenport

Mars

raced at

Davenport

two nights

Jason

Fager

won both of them

and then

Quincy

on Sunday night

we're Tony

Jackson

Junior

one

what else

am I missing

Dwayne

I

I don't know

if you've seen this

did you see

we haven't heard

when

Pittsburgh

is what

oh yeah

yeah

supposedly

we've heard

you see

who's

who the video

hinted

is going to be

at Eldoror

for the

dirt track

world

championship

yeah

I can't remember

who though

Ben and Steel

Oh

in the

master book car

yes

got you

yeah

he started

at Brown

still down

oh yeah

well they did a video

on it says

one's

71

come back out

and

they had

one of his old dirt track

world championship

trophies on there

wiping it off

says

we think

this race looks good

Oh

okay

I didn't see that

I

I think I saw

maybe

a clip

or a

a caption

but I never

watched it

or

yeah

they're past

so

dusting off

some of the old dirt track

world championship

trophies on the hood

saying

well this looks like

a good race

to go to

well that'd be

I mean

it's like Don O'Neill

is it going to be racing

against his son

and oh yeah

I mean

that's a hell of a race

to bring out

kind of a

I mean

I know masters

will

spin around

but they're

trying to get on the

the current

curve of

chassis

like it's

that's

the hell of a one

to bring it out

when I don't

feel like

they've had a lot

going on

but

I mean

he had some

decent races

in that car

at Brownstown

and such

but obviously

very

very different track

right

yeah

so

yeah

I thought

I didn't

figure you've

seen that

or else

you would have been talking

about it

because I know

yeah

they can't buy you guys

at the world

100 and such

are used to

or

yeah

oh yeah

still there

son

Don was on his golf cart

with their

puppy

Rotweiler

couple of times

so supposedly

supposedly is going to be

running the dirt track

World Championship

yeah

that'll be

wild

here's one that just

popped up today

522

Tazwell, Tennessee

Brian Smith

longtime late model

competitor

at Tazwell

has

agreed to

purchase the track

from

Gary Hall

hmm

not our Brian Smith

that we know

correct

oh dang it

correct

but

yeah

I know

Tazwell has been a

it's 61 year old track

super

super high banked

it's a

you know

popular place

but I know

that times

they have trouble

getting cars

because it's

so banked

and high powered

it's

kind of a

did you see

as opposed to

Pettensboro

still going to race

this year

I guess

I gave up on it

never heard

anything else

mostly came out

last week

or s

srx

or s

whatever

XR

XRS

whatever they are

srx

X

srx was Tony

Stewart's deal

yeah

not that

whatever

XR

there it is

sorry we had too many letters

yeah

no I

XR

crook

is that what it's called

I mean

sorry

he's gonna be

not emailing

he's gonna be

emailing

the thing again

he commented

I think

send all emails

to Elliott

Aldridge

but all he said

was it was

so amazing

and

great

but I don't think it was

yeah

anyway

but anyways

yeah

he's got 14 different

Facebook pages

none of them

are fucking

updated

to say

anything

Mansfield

officially scheduled

race

yes

thank you

for

I shared it

on Dirt Nerds

but I did

forget to

yeah

forget to put

our notes

that's right

supposedly

from the Great Vine

I heard

rumors that's

first of

several

fast races

there

in

2026

got you

I heard a number

I don't know

how true

it is

but the rumor

mill

is

you'd

put

about

one a month

there

okay

yeah

I mean

I don't

hate it

um

from April

to October

yeah

that's

that's a good way

to break it

in

get started

yeah

what about

I know

this

the here's

where we

walk

the little

tight rope

of

the Dirt Nerds

Jacksonville

Illinois

oh yes

I

watch

that clip

and

I saw

did you

see the post

today

I did

that Kenny

put out

I thought

it was

I mean

it's a great

good way

of handling it

yeah

it's great

that he owned

up to it

but

yeah

why in the hell

if you're

the only

eyes

are you

leaving

if you're

running the

radio

yeah

to go get

sportsman

payout

checks that

I mean

that was

that was that important

what if

that's coming

Newton

that flip

laying there

three laps

upside down

yeah

and from

I heard

it was pretty

nasty flip

and his

bell

was wrong

Oh

yeah

I didn't see

like

I didn't see

the flip

but

you couldn't

see it

from

because of

how the tracks

people saying

that

it

wrong

he's

bell

my thing is

what if

we would have

caught on fire

yeah

the announcer

was

and yeah

the announcer

so

who

and

and I get it

he had ownership

but

this is something

okay

it's great

yes

but

that's great

and everybody's like

while you're human

like anybody

this is too big

of a mistake

to go

well

sorry guys

we'll do better

next time

there's guy

flipped over

for three laps

upside down

the possibly

could have been hurt

and God forbid

thank God

he didn't

catch on fire

yeah

and the announcer

yelling

why aren't we

throwing

somebody

yeah

which

it sounds like

now

it says

well

now people

know

they can

get on the radio

and call

red flag

when I'm not there

nobody's smart enough

to do that before

yeah

I mean

come on

yeah

I mean

you can

you can have the whole

laundry list

of excuses

that you want

and I get it

and I'm not trying to be

too

because I like

Jacksonville

and

here's a big enough

man

come out

I screwed up

but

you can

not have

I mean

unfortunately

somebody lost their

life there

a few years ago

mm-hmm

because of

not good situation

not

that it was that

I mean

they're just

the infield

was open

and

guy come flying

through there

you can't have

major screwups

all the time

because

next thing you know

the more

issues

you have

like that

you know

lawyers

ambulance

chasing

lawyers

are going to be

Oh my God

and you know

your insurance

is not going to get cheaper

and it's

live on

a streaming

deal

and

you

what

if you start

losing cars

and sponsors

then

it's going to be

the internet

problem

because

everybody's

giving crap

for

screwing up

one time

and you're all

human

and we all

screw up

which

I get

you do

that's a major

screw up

that's

that's one of those

that's like

so literally

you know

again

I don't want to

pile on

because I really

like Jacksonville

and Kenny's

done a great job

yes

but at the same time

like

you don't have

one person

watching the race

yeah

like

the one person

watching the

race

that

should say

something

wasn't

like

that's him

he wasn't

got checks for the

sports

if you go to

Attica

if you go to

Fremont

if you go to

Half their tracks

there's

14 people

in the tower

yeah

all watching

the race

well he said

most of

people had their

backs turn

and he

give us reasons

why and they're

all excuse

well

which

sounds like

now

they have

dedicated people

which

why on earth

would you not

have dedicated

people before

on a quarter

mile

track

yeah

of

if it's

a quarter

mile

yeah

being

that the

things in

infields

there has to be

one person

watching the

front stretch

one back

in the back

stretch

and all

times

that's

capable

of saying

hey

there's

car upside down

yeah

let's

I mean

thank God

it wasn't on fire

that's my thing

I mean

yeah for sure

I mean

yeah

and then the

now sir

which

he was

doing his

job

it sounds like

he's

pretty upset

about it

yeah

um

doing his

and nobody

do anything

about

they're

like well

they

wasn't sure

that they could

get on

the radio

and call

a red flag

there's

a guy

upside down

yeah

I mean

yeah

I don't

there's

a lot

of common sense

not being

common senses

yeah

don't get me

wrong

I hate

to bag

on him

because

I like

to place

and

the guys

done a lot

of work

and he's like

hey

I'm the one

screwed up

but why in the hell

are you going

and getting

sportsman

payout

checks

they're

in the middle

of the

Sprint car

feature

yeah

I mean

they can

wait

10

minutes

yeah

especially

when the

scenarios

like that

like

obviously

I wouldn't

say that's

normally

an issue

like

at

Attica

or something

if

you know

because

I have

runners

yeah

people

that do that

and

but like

you know

the fact

that it's

like

well

this one

guy

who watches

the race

to call

it

accidents

out

isn't

going to be there

to do that

there needs to be a second

third fourth

backup

yeah

needs to be

somewhere

yeah

like that

was pretty

pretty

wild

for that

to happen

kudos to the

announcer

I mean

and that's one thing

you know

like

it wasn't

I mean

give Kenny

respect

you know

some

respect

in his post

he said

you know

hey

I got

nothing wrong

with the way

the announcer

did anything

like

he had every

right to be

oh yeah

he was this

what

should have been

yeah

I mean

what she should

I mean

it

I know you're

wrong

yes

he's done a lot of

great deals

and he's

taken ownership

of it

but

that's one of

those mistakes

is like

that can't

happen

yeah

I mean

that's one of

the things

that

I just can't

yeah

that's pretty

pretty big one

of

again

came out

admitted

fault

yes

you know

which

gonna fix it

they're fixing it

which is good

last couple days

they fix it

but

yeah

I mean

damage

I mean

I hope it

don't hurt the car

guys

you know guys

are going to start

about

man

yeah

you know

I mean

and it's a

small track

but it's a

fast little

track

so yeah

it is

you know

and there's

a few kind

of

not

blunt ends

but

you know

turn one's

a little sketchy

if you go

in high

I saw Zach

Hampton flip

a mile

into the air

just Brady

Bacon

that time

yeah

that's right

you know

some of those guys

yeah

I mean

I liked

place

and it's

but it's like

I love that place

let me put it

that way

if it comes to watching

Sprint cars

you have to get

Jacksonville

it's awesome

as neat

as this

awesome

and they do

a great job

but

six

like that

you cannot make

I mean

yeah

so we

would

we dog on them

a little

but again

we love the place

don't want anything

bad to happen

that's why we dog

on them

because it's like

we know

how shit

can happen

in this industry

yeah

so

things are fixed

the fault was

owned up to

all good

but

yeah

we'll see

how things go

in the future

hopefully

we never

worry about it again

yeah

put it that way

hopefully all their

bad

mojos

out of

the

system there

for a while

yeah

because they've had

some bad

luckily

yes

I've had

string of

interesting

the first one

wasn't their fault

I mean

every track

in Illinois

has an open

infield

yeah

that's one thing

I've noticed

going there

I mean

there's not

one track

that

all of them

got open

infields

well

hardly any

protection

for anybody sent in there

and half of them

have the flagman

in the infield

yes

exactly

um

yeah

the

pensboro

thing

it just

it was a post

that says

see you soon

but there's no

date

or anything

there's talking

about

I

I read somewhere

somebody's

article

where they said

they was

United

I think the

ULMS

probably have

something to do

with that

they said

Pennsylvania

it is

racing

it's going

to be in

October

still

blah

I don't know

probably be night

let's

probably do it

October

11th

right

they'll do it

against

freaking

West Virginia

most

supposedly

they're supposed to

work with them

got you

I would imagine

if you want

I mean

honestly

West Virginia

motor speedway

is going to have

a better shot

at this point

the pensboro

will

just because

of the size

of the track

but

mm-hmm

if you want

a shot

for both

the work

well

then I would

yeah

supposedly

they're supposed

to work together

yeah

but yeah

I seen it

at some

article

yeah

um

I don't

know did you see

Danny

Dietrich's

little

rant about

track prep

no

that he posted today

I thought

it was interesting

I did not

um

kind of gave

Ohio

some credit

which was

weird

not that

weird

because

he likes

racing

here

we all know

that

but

uh

we know

there's going

to be some

dust

in Ohio

so

ten hours

ago

he posted

let's

talk about

race track

surfaces

apologize

that this is

long

because

lately

almost every

tracks

in this area

sucks

there are

a few exclusions

at times

what happened

to old-school

track prep

what happened

to using

a disc

to tear

the track

up

what happened

to progressive

banking

what happened

is we have

a dam

lay-lay

tiller

that scratches

about two inches

off the surface

if we're

lucky

and I watch

a track

lay-lay

the other week

and not

add water

during the

daylight

the old days

of prepping a track

must

must be

too far

gone

10 inches

held maybe

14 inches

of curb

cushion

would be nice

if it's

high enough

up the track

make it

technical

make a cushion

that will

make a car

get upset

the style of racing

we had

where we have

to drive

straight as an arrow

through the middle

rubber down

from the left

rear

it's getting old

tracks around here

suck

75% of the time

it's amazing

when we go to Ohio

how things change

we go to Ohio

and all of a sudden

it's a driver's race track

it's no wonder

P.A. tracks

don't have full grain

stands for

semi-regular show

then we turn around

run time trials

10 lap heats

and long

A mains

more laps on our engines

raising costs

for owners

just because

there's a name

on the program

for tonight's event

doesn't mean

we needed more laps

and don't get me

started on

planned fuel stops

do we want to get started

with the fact

that more laps

mean more rubber down

at the end of the night

have you ever seen

someone scratch

the surface of the clay

and throw the clay away

because I haven't

so what do we do

mix the rubber into the clay

after so long

what do you think is

going to happen

more rubber

built into the clay mixture

then rubber

comes up faster

100%

at the end of the day

do tracks realize

how important it is

not to have rubber

put down

on the surface

he says

tracks I challenge you

all to fix it yourself

do something

tracks with a crown

reverse banking

lack of water

get rubber down

some of you have rubber

on the straight aways

and for the love of God

Williams Grove

don't smash down

the damn cushion

when you actually

get one forming

rant over

happy Monday

you filthy animals

he's not wrong

in a lot of it

yeah

I'm just surprised

he said

I go to Ohio

and it's changed

I'm like

what the hell's going

are we living

in reverse

world now

or something

I mean we do

do track

probably

I mean

everybody complains

while it gets

a little dirty

well that's just

the dirt

it's not

the red clay

or stuff like

some of the places

are

you know

I mean

yeah

how dirt's

a little sooty

and sandy

yeah

it's a

it was a

yeah

I didn't

think anything

obviously

it sounds like

it's a

Pennsylvania thing

you know

for me

I go to

well

I've heard people

complain

about Williams

Grove all time

but I've

every time

I've been there

it's been decent

yeah

and I

I mean

going to Port Royal

they seem to

kind of

really do

a really good job

so maybe I'm spoiled

because that's

where I've been the most

you know

the time I went to

Williams Grove

I don't remember it

being

terrible

but I don't

think

the cushion

was pushed up

it was like

middle of the track

kind of thing

there's late models

and sprint cars

and

late models

were pretty much

on the bottom

the whole time

but

I don't remember it

being

terrible

so

yeah

but it's kind of weird

usually we hear

about

bitching about

Ohio track surfaces

and

yeah

last few years

it's been

quite the opposite

I think

so

pretty wild

yes

for sure

and I always love

D&E D trip

for speaking

his mind

whether you like it

or not

you're going to hear

about it

that's right

and most time

he's not far off

yeah

he's

he's one of those guys

that say

you know

I don't agree

with everything

he says

but he's

he's never completely

off base

with a lot of things

right

so

all right

well

you got anything else

comes to mind

I'm missing

I forgot

sure

sure there is

can't think of anything

cool

not that I can

know

not sure

but I don't think so

okay

yeah

I got nothing new

so

I guess

she's Sheldon's video

kind of teasing

had a video

on Twitter of

all the different hats

one

a

five

then he had a thing

going

high limits

outlaws

and he'd

put one on

shaky's head

put one on

and be like

well

well maybe

put one on point

point high limits

yeah

point outlaws

yeah

then the last one's

93

puts it on

and he's like

yeah

interesting

yeah

hear any more

gossip on that one

biggest thing

I keep hearing

is the

teammates with a gravel

but I

I don't know

yeah

doesn't see like that be

yeah

I don't

I don't see that

how

I mean

that's been a rumor

for a few years

I was gonna get

a second car

you know

suppose is

gonna get one

for Donnie

and then

there's gonna get one

you know

so

yeah

I mean

that's before Donnie

that's gonna

for all this

now

if you're looking

you get Donnie

shots of chance

that's who I would pick

but a second car

I mean

nothing in Sheldon

but

I would think

I was wrong

Sheldon's wife

is not from Iowa

I was told

gotcha

so sure

tell me that

after our episode

of course

but

but Ripper's living out there

and

that's why I think

the KCP ride

I do too

but

I don't know

maybe it'll go high limits

I don't know

yeah

maybe you got some big backers

get the 93

I don't know

go high limits

don't you have to have a charter

or something to make any money

or is that

yeah

does that start

let's buy one

let's start next year

or this

or this year

because first five

then next five

so it's

it's

over the next

okay

start next year

all this year though

no start next year

but so you'll have your 10

no you have

because they have five from last year

Oh they already

okay

so do I

fucking

yeah

you got five from last year

and five for this year

okay

so there's your 10

so yeah

you can't really start

join that series

and

make any good money then

unless you're going to

pay for a

charter

I guess

or drive the 49

nine car

Brad sweet retires

like everybody's saying

yeah

I don't know

I don't think Brad sweet

retire

but you know

it's been the hot rumor

yeah

I don't see it

I could text him

I guess

I don't think

I mean just to be frank

I don't think that series

is

well enough established

now for him to retire

and just be an owner of it

no

like I don't know

I mean

obviously we know

flows involved

but it's not like

Brad's cashing a huge check

off to the side

they're

they're involved

to support the series

how long's flow going to stay on

yeah

on board of it

yeah

because they're showing some of the numbers

the tusky

you see that

I did not

um

what's his name

dirt tracker had it on

no fielder

yeah had uh

the world 100 was like

400 and some thousand

and tusky was up there

but it was

nah I think it was only

it wasn't 400 and some thousand like

yeah

and it tapered down

I think it wasn't even half

I think it was

so make sense

I said

chili bulls

still been the all time

highest that

like

660,000

or something

really

I didn't expect that to be

higher to be honest

so

now

it green

it's depending how they

we had

because of Saturday night

when it always

switched to mav TV

to

well

more so because

like

is that how many people

are watching it

at certain times

because it's just Saturday

I think it said

well yeah

but I'm saying like

even if you're watching

a Saturday

Saturday start to

10 in the morning

so if you only

watch for two hours

in the morning

versus two hours

and not like

yeah

how they capture that

right

that's

right

there's a way

they factor that

so

so I was talking

you know

that oh

this race was less

and

it's not like

the all stars

was like

one of the least

I would imagine

um

so it's like

so

where's the regular high limit

shows setting in

if that

I mean

if some of these

are only

30 40 thousand

is that making them

enough to keep

flow is that making

flow enough to keep

yeah

fun and a lot of stuff

you know

and not to mention

if you're

I mean

not to pick on high limits

too much

but we've

we've all seen

some of those races

in the stands

yeah tracks

got to make money

to and

trust me

I know

I know what the

flow people say

they act like

they give these tracks

a dump truck

full of money

it is definitely not

so

you know

some of them

they'll only do

like Fremont

is 50 50

they Fremont

put money

but they wouldn't

so

they're only making

50 feel like

to pack ones

but

some of them

uh

high limits

slash flow

do the whole

person

the whole

you know

give the track

X amount of money

just the least

kind of deal

yeah

and some's

50 50

and some

the tracks are

no

we're doing it

because I know

I know

Fremont is

50 50

and they're like

no next year

we get 100%

or not

is what they tell them

yeah

high limits

because like

you know

Fremont is

home run

for them

and flow

did absolutely

nothing

yeah

I mean

yeah

so it's like

then they

wanted to limit

the employees

and then

all that stuff

they want

you know

crazy stuff

yeah

so

I mean

just from

what we know

of dealing with

our local tracks

and how they've

portrayed

how

things get transferred

and monetary

monetary side of things

it's not

let's put it this way

if you see a track

have a high limit

race on

and their grandstands

aren't full

more than likely

that track

is

losing money

in some way

shape or fashion

right

it's not a

10,000

win show

it's a

20 plus

thousand

to win show

with the

$80,000

total purse

plus the

sanctioning

feeds

probably costing

that track

100 G's

to run

a high limit show

so when the stands

aren't full

needless to say

that tracks

not going to make money

especially if

it's

you know

people stayed home

to watch it on

flow

instead of actually

going out to the track

right

hey

I'm not one

they're going to say

streaming's

killing racing

by any means

because

I was just

at the largest

crowd

did the

history of

Eldora

yeah

to me

streaming is a way

to get people

to get to your

track

exactly

it's just a matter

of how

you do it

yep

and

how you run

the program

right

yes

I think

Attica does

a good job

of that too

it may

if it's hurting

anything

it may hurt

a few local shows

when the weather's bad

yeah

but

it's not hurting

the crowds

I mean

there's been huge crowds

a lot of places

this year

that were streamed

yeah

I just don't think

it's like

a huge moneymaker

kind of like

it's not

like the stream

people kind of

make it sound

like

yeah it's not

you know

by any means

I mean

that goes for

both of them too

I'm not just

saying flow

I mean

dirt vision

it's the same way

it's a good way

to promote your

facility

if you do it right

but

yeah I know

depending on the deal

you know

some tracks get

X amount of

a year

and it's

not that much

yeah

like you say

oh

it seems like

a good chunk of money

and it is

but

until you factor in

like

oh

if I just

if you got

24 shows

and you're only getting

say

$10,000

for the year

yeah

it's like

really like

12

8

like

6 pit passes

a show less

and you're

out that money

like

it's

crazy

how it adds up

because it seems like

there's really shitty

and rainy

and

and you say

a whole lot of people

yeah

you see that

like on a regular

show

I'll just stay home

and watch it on

flow

yeah

track

you know

if the track

loses 400

people

and they're

only getting paid

basically for

10

yeah

in their contract

that's where

you lose

money

exactly

that'll happen

much

but it does

happen

and that's

more of a regular

show

thing

but

exactly

um

yeah

it's

it's an opportunity

to

that's

why

I would

tell track

track

well I've heard it

I mean

trust me

there's so many tracks

in the south

I will never

fucking go to

because every time

I turn

flow

we're watching fucking

compacts

qualify for

an hour and a half

then we're watching

super stocks

and we're watching

604

late models

602

late models

526

late models

limited late models

steelblock

late models

sportsman

late models

limited late models

then

super late models

yeah

so

guess what

topless

late models

and

yeah

I'm not going

for a wheel

late models

qualifying for

three hours

before the races

actually start

thanks to streaming

I will not go

when I was

sitting under promoters

thing at

Knoxville

last time was

Knoxville

and there's guy

in there

going

hey

I'm from

Texas

and I would

never even

know

Attica

Raceway Park

never in her

at

Attica

Raceway Park

I turned on

dirt

Vigency

and

we're planning

on going

to Attica

Raceway Park

just because

man

they got awesome racing

and we

always

wouldn't come to

Ohio

to a trip

and

we can go to

Eldor

and Attica

or you know

or Attica

whatever

yeah

you know

and

as long

as you do

a good job

like I said

you're not doing

four hours of

qualifying

and

well like the other night

well

I

that's why

I

didn't end up

watching the

rest of the

main

for the

late models

because

it was

10 30

I think

and we still

had

two B

mains

and a

two

I think

stock car

B

mains and another

a main

before the

late model

a main

yeah

and it's like

this is

during the week

dude

yeah

no kidding

those people

didn't care

no

that's the thing

doctor

our friends

from down south

and I said

people sit there

don't want to

in the morning

that's just

the way

they like it

like

yeah

well

we're a little different

up here

in the north

so

yeah

anyway

we got stuff

to do

streaming rent

over

I guess

sorry

yeah

I don't

think

streaming

pertinent

just

yeah

I just get

I get

hurt by

how much

some people

portray

like

we're

paying

tracks

all kinds

of money

it's like

yeah

I know

you're not

because I know

some of the tracks

that

you've dealt with

and

they tell me

you're not

paying a bunch of money

so

yeah

I'm sure

all doors

making a shit

lot of money

yeah

you know

yeah

depending on

tracks

and

Port Royals

one that

some of their

events

yeah

making them

some money

yeah

and then

there's like

Lincoln Speedway

and

in Pennsylvania

who literally

just was

last year

said

you know

we're only

gonna show

eight

eight races

this year

on

flow

because

they thought

streaming

was hurting

their revenue

right

so

yeah

there's

there's strategies

to play on

all

kinds of sides

so

just got to figure out

what's going to work

fast

now

and basically

I don't know

what this power

I've

fast one

is

but

yeah

start your own

yeah

Fremont

and

G.L.S.S.

is

and I think

Berlin

up the

Berlin

Michigan

might be

the same way

yeah

there's another

one

I saw

to

uh

that

uh

I can't remember

what it was

but I was like

oh

there's another

track

kind of

doing it

on their own

so

yeah

multiple ways

to skin a cap

so

yes

all right

before we get too

fired up again

I guess we'll call

this

episode

Dwayne

how about that

I like it

you got more fired up

and I did

I know

well

I didn't

I got fired up

on the car

sit upside down

with three laps

yeah

see

there you go

we both got fired up

our buddy Honeycut

knows my feelings

towards

qualifying

yes

he's talked

about it before

uh

and yeah

it's fun

listening to some

of those guys

different

it's fun to hear

the difference

experiences

across

dirt racing

that's why

you go down south

you gotta drink

cause you gotta be drunk

because the only thing

you can do

is either sleep

or drink

for four hours

yeah

get drunk

you pass out

then you wake up

and time to watch

the features

probably

that's probably how it works

anyway

thank you everybody

for listening

thank you

for tuning in

as always

four crowns

coming up

yes

be sure to get there

you do

high limits

are at

uh

supposed to be at

Lawrenceburg on Wednesday

for the

out deal

got you

are you going

all three nights

yes

okay

that's a plan

got you

then

Clyde Street

races Sunday

yep

forget about that

um

yeah

all three nights

El Dorre

yeah

I think

Wayne County's

uh

fall

was it

dirt blowout

yeah

weekend

three grand

for Sprint cars

and two

grand for late models

uh

Butler

Butler season championship

but yeah

they got you

set coming in

two weeks

so

yeah

good deal

I won't be at

any races

I'm shocked

there's the

what

reaction

I was waiting for

holy crap

we got family trick

to treat it

campground

big fella

you could not

steal all the candy again

actually had to

turn down a

cigar trailer event

because

this is a

big weekend

for the kids

for the family

and the nieces

so

I'm

I'm fucking

the awesome uncle

do you even

have a cigar

trailer anymore

I mean

you never take it

anywhere

I know

that's in the driveway

yeah

hey October 4th

F and W auto supply

Dwayne Prime

won't be there

but I'll be there

you don't go

any dang races

that doesn't surprise me

yeah

get high in your own

supply baby

that we do

where you should pay

for your stuff

if you get it built there

yeah

not everybody does

no

best friends

since I was a

kid so

yeah

fun types

racers

screwing over

parts suppliers

go figure shocked

anyway right

that'll do it

for us

as always

thank you for tuning in

tell your friends

tell your family

probably all said

all this

can't remember

what I said

already

but anyway

I guess

that'll be it

for us

bye bye
