Doing a full top and bottom rework after TT then making teams of two heat races waste $ and time by wheel packing/buzzing the track back into racing condition đŸ˜đŸ˜”â€đŸ’«

ASCS Show: “Heat race times faster than we had in time trials tonight, Blake Hahn is flying”
.yeah, it’s cause the track is rubber down 😐 Track looks pretty cool though, lil’ sketchy

Did anyone get $32,000 back on their tax return, hit the lottery, or wind up with some of grandmas inheritance money and want to become a 360 engine owner for RHR?! 😁

Raceday at Selinsgrove Speedway & Raceway Park w/ USAC East Coast. If you’re a sprint car fan, get your ass up there and support them. WINGED 410’s, WINGED 360’s, and WINGLESS 360’s. Hot laps start at 7pm 📾: Chris Hockley

đŸŒ§ïž out at last night at Selinsgrove, but đŸŒ§ïž out tonight with URC at Grandview without a make up date sucks. Hometown track and only winged 360 race of the year. Anyone wanna sponsor/rent a 410 to use for PA Speedweek next month? 😅

What a badass American Sprint Car Series A main from 67 Speedway. If you didn’t watch live, I suggest you go watch the replay. Makes me wish I could get out on the tour. They seem to go to some badass places across the country that are hidden gems. Tim Crawley had the track MINT

People complain about other “unsafe” racetracks but then praise places like this. Yes, badass racing, but holy hell blunt openings, guardrails barely a RR tire high, billboards and fence posts 10ft behind the guardrail. Haven’t we learned anything? Thank God this wasn’t worse

Man, I love Knoxville Raceway Tricky slick with some grippy strips. Big speed. Technical. Big Balls. Badass.That 2 car is DIALED IN. Smooth, digging, and capitalized on others mistakes perfectly. Veteran Madman still strong. Tricky Ricky continues to bring FAST cars to K-Ville.

Buried myself early over driving and chasing the car setup. Cleared my head. Went back to basics. +10 Hard Charger in the A rippin’ the top. P2 đŸ„ˆ at the end of 25 laps. 8 months out of a 270, 2nd time at Limerock, 4th time ever in this car. Finishes of đŸ„‡, 5, DNQ, đŸ„ˆ. Not shabby

If I could teleport anywhere right now, I’d be spectating at Waynesfield reppin’ an old school Haud shirt and hat. Gosh damnit. Thankful for FloRacing coverage!

It is damn cool to see Bill Balog having success on the Outlaw trail this season, and having a great week at HUSETS so far. Would be badass to see him win $250k. Life changing. I know how much it takes to be a small team against the elites, but it makes those wins so much better!

Another cool underdog story is my former teammate/bossmans team of the 1A. New track for Ashton, made every A main all week, learning and staying consistent. Jacob continuing to learn as CC. Solid week for them.

Just finished watching the ‘01 Pocono 500 on the NASCAR Channel. Fatback McSwain gets his first crew chief win, Rudd with his 21st Cup win. Broadcast, atmosphere, the amount of importance they put on every race. Great way to take me back to my childhood

Heat race went 4th to 2nd. Made the redraw. Drew the #2 and ran there most of the race. Restarts didn’t help me, and didn’t nail the setup and gear first time being here in a sprint car. Slid back to 5th. In one piece for Selinsgrove Speedway & Raceway Park tomorrow w/ USAC East Coast

I just want to clarify that I DO NOT own a racetrack so I know my opinion doesn’t mean đŸ’©, but another prime example of a flawed area of a track design. The other 3/4 of the track is good though. #learnandimprove #constructivecriticism

It amazes me that anyone could listen to this absolute symphony of internal combustion and think the current car sounds better đŸ˜”â€đŸ’«
