I may be there . Not sure yet. But I was there last night . Some good racing. Chub Frank & Steve Francis side by side door to door for 7 laps in a heat race. Bloomer not qualifying coming from the tail of his heat race to second and a transfer to the feature. Then from 15th starting spot in the feature to a second place finish. Rj Conley getting upset on the first caution then spinning out on the restart. Came back to a top 5 finish after going to the tail. Tim Hit coming from the tail a couple times . Should be good tonight with the guys back from last night , plus some guys from extreme showing up to night.

The Macs portion of the week end (sat night) was much better than the WOO portion tonight. The racing was alot better last night with better track conditions. Lots of passing and the show was ran alot smoother last night. Cars in the right heats. ect. Tonight cars was coming out in the wrong heats , and long delay between Qualifying and heat races. They also counted caution laps tonight ...WOO rule  And the Delaware restart another WOO rule ....why give the leader the advantage? If the dirty dozen are the best of the best they shouldn't need any help.. if your going to have double file restarts make everyone start double file including the leader  .
Hey RJ7171C71R whats your take on the Conley boys this week .. First RJ taking himself out of a chance to run for a win last night ....Then Rod punting Blankenship out of the way on turn 4 of the last lap of his heat race to "EARN" the last transfer spot from his heat to the feature ;D

You are definitley right about the MACS portion being ran better!! The MACS are sooooooo much more organized than the so-called GREAT Dirty Dozen officials LOL!!The racing on Saturday was one of the better races I seen all year!! On Saturday when RJ was upset about the way he was lined up on the restart!! He was put on the inside and was in 3rd place when Dale McDowell was in 1st and got the outside!! He thought he should have been on the outside behind McDowell!! But when the MACS officials told him that only the leader chooses which side they want and everyone else lines up the same ,then he got in line,but he said he was still mad about and just over drove it into turn 2 and lost it!! He said if he didnt have to come from the tail then he would have been up there with McDowell and Bloomer!! Still he was happy with his run from 22nd back to 5th!!Now the Rod and Blankenship deal was kind of cool in my opinion!! Blankenship did push Rod out of turn 1/2 from the bottom groove and Rod showed Delmas the tire marks!! Well Delmas wanted the B-Main line-ups so i went down to the WOO trailer and they were like not even having a clue LOL!! I heard the WOO officials talking about the Conley/Blankenship incident and one of the WOO guys was going to go talk to Conley!! Well I followed him down there and Rod wasnt there at the time and he told RJ that Rod was going to be DQ'ed for Rough Driving and they all were not too happy with this!! Then Rod came back and was having a discussion with the WOO official and then showed them the Big Donut that Blankenship had rendered on him in turn 2 and the WOO officials changed the call and it was announced that Rod HAD THE SPOT!!!!!! WOOOOOOO No pun intended there LOL!! Counting the caution Laps in the A-Main was total BS!! I was madder than heck about that!! If I wanted to go watch Caution Laps ran I would have gone to a darn NASCAR race!! I dont think it would have mattered as Bloomer probably had them covered but thats not the POINT!! The WOO Rules stunk and the MACS officials and there show was much better!! MACS RULES!!! WOO SUCKS!!

That was my point about RJ. It was a good run from 22 all the way back to 5th. If he hadn't lost is cool he wouldn't have been on the tail. If he didnt have to come from the tail then he would have been up there with McDowell and Bloomer. He had to use his stuff up to get back to 5th.
As for the Rod deal ....So your saying if somebody puts a donut on your car its ok to take them out ? ;D. Blankenship did get into Rod but he didn't take him out. Rod lost one position. He was still close enough to take Blankenship out on the final corner allowing several cars to pass him . Giving him a horrible starting position in the B main . With that starting position Blankenship had no shot at finishing in the top 2 of his B-main. If the roles was refersed . Say Rod put the donut on Blankenship. Then Blankenship drove right through Rod on the last corner spinning him out allowing the entire field to pass him giving Rod a horrible Starting spot in the B-main with no shot to make the feature . Would you still think that the deal was "cool" ?

When did a tire rub get a guy sent to tail or disq. Bad call for letting rod spin out no 23 and letting him have transfer spot. the tire rub could have been on there from night before or frome some one elses car. If this is the case then they need to take pics of every car before every race so they know if they got a little scrath or nor and who put it in there. As for the 100 lapper thats what i payed to watch not a bunch of cautions beening counting under caution. If the whole race was ran under green it could have been diff. you never know when something might brake or a flat tire. But that was about the only thing that would have stoped bloomer.

Sundays race was OK, tracked conditions were marginal. The Rod/Blankenship deal was wrong. Blankenship may have rubbed Rod in turn two but it wasnt even enough for Rod to lift or lose his line, It was blatant that Rod drove in deep just to take out Blankenship. What was even worse was when Chris Conely tried to take Blankenship out in the B-Main. He drove straight through turn 3 to clip Blankenships corner like Rod did but missed then tried to catch up & wrecked in turn 3, I laughed my butt off at that one.
I have been a Delmas fan for as long as I can, but Rod shoulkd have been DQ'ed.
