When we were there it was hard finding out what trucks were laps down we could see the scoring pylon in front of us but lapped down traffic isn't noted. I think watching on tv is better. Poor David Starr crashed out with about 5 or 6 laps to go. Hardly anyone at the track but it took us a long time to get out of the parking area. We forgot to record it but have it set for early tomorrow morning.Vicky Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13084198036514255332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-31033471869460418882010-06-05T14:09:48.774-04:002010-06-05T14:09:48.774-04:00Also the first few rows of the frontstretch, and t...Also the first few rows of the frontstretch, and the turns, were closed off. The track will not sell certain parts of the track for IRL races for safety reasons. There was IRL practice and the signature four-lap qualifying that afternoon so IRL seating restrictions were in place.<br /><br />The IRL drivers wanted more caution light indications and the idea of using lights such as what was used last night was based on IRL requests for Texas. We'll likely see them too for the AAA Texas 500 since that race (2:15 PM CST green flag) will likely finish at night.Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02366544608847776006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-37696992829622089632010-06-05T11:14:58.046-04:002010-06-05T11:14:58.046-04:00When is this site going to stop praising the Truck...When is this site going to stop praising the Truck series coverage. The coverage is terrible!!!!!!! Rick Allen has no idea whats happening, and Mikey and Phil scream endlessly and never shut up. There were several instances tonite where it showed they hadnt done their research. A lot of info was incorrect, and a lot of on track incidents were missed by the tv crew. Very poor tv coverage as ive come to expect from the truck series team.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-3558473200809171142010-06-04T23:25:38.480-04:002010-06-04T23:25:38.480-04:00Thanks for stopping by everyone, I apologize for t...Thanks for stopping by everyone, I apologize for the moderation but sometimes it gets a little thick. <br /><br />See you for the Nationwide Series race Saturday night with Vince Welch handling the play-by-play.<br /><br />JDDaly Planet Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13834588435004023666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-23958075550727964952010-06-04T23:20:34.205-04:002010-06-04T23:20:34.205-04:00Now that was a major screw up.

The controversy over that forced them to have to show all sponsors in their animated cars. ESPN prior to 2001 never excluded sponsors as far as I can remember.

ESPN started the practice of excluding them and hampered the teams chances of getting sponsors interested since their names are no longer mentioned on TV. Fox followed the practice and racing has suffered as a result.<br />If Fox, TNT and ESPN would mention sponsors then you would see race teams bounce back, refrain from Start and parks and become more competitive resulting in tighter/better racing.
