Appreciate the information, love what you're doing with the channel.
I definitely Love you reporting and show!
We were there. He and Clanton were both stellar!
Great job Justin! Love the show man!
Mccreddie and Davenport are sharing info. Nobody did what Davenport did at Knoxville. So what’s up with that. I’m also done with going to Lucas oil races. I payed a lot of money for a 100 lap race and I got a 50 lap race. Never again.
Thanks for showing the ridiculous stuff that goes on to cheat the rules. I know most fans want a level playing field but unless you want Spec cars it is never going to happen. I’m good with eliminating any rule that is insignificant, add costs or can’t be measured accurately across the board.
Thanks!

Much appreciated Ed! That decal is headed your way!
Real problem is the team innovation that built the LM sport has been on a slippery slope towards nascar type cookie cutter cars/rules. Removing much of the out of the box thinking that was the hallmark of LMs. These are supposed to be open late models, run what you brung and hope you brung enough. The only real great rule changes over last few years has been for safety. The others, not so much.
It’s always been that way and it always will be. They make the rules and we try to bend them without getting caught. Remember, it’s only cheating if you get caught! Lol! Terre Haute was always an awesome place to go to a race (if it was open) when I was a kid. I absolutely hate to see issues surrounding the action track. But it always been this way. If it’s not one thing it’s another. Great show!
Ya buddy. Heard that for 60 years, in all ranks too.
The Longhorns are flying. Rumley has them things dominating.
hard to beat those High Cost Teams--new engines all the time, also heavy expenses in shocks---the only way to trim this is to have an engine/shock claim rule so these teams don't simply outspend all the others--which they are doing.

Always been this way
I was there !!! Tuesday night. That rule is a big joke. Every rule they make the teams will try to change it to work for them. Just like the rule of the body’s being straight on both sides front to back. Just like the mods. They let some get a way with what they want to and not others. The. Race at Kokomo was v good race put the price was way to much. And Kokomo is a Sprint Car Track.
Just get rid of the stupid rule. It ain’t done anything but cause issues
KZread is blocking all of the comments for me. Kind of annoying.
If it's NOT in the rule book, it ain't cheatin!!! Smokey Yunick
Imagine if Davenport was still in the rumley 6 car how good he would be
don't you just hate it when that happens
There pretty much team mates
Just out of curiosity… do you truly believe that crazy stuff like this isn’t going on under the car to beat the droop rule? Does it make you feel better not to see the crazy stuff going on? Or do you prefer stuff that costs a lot more than a ratchet strap to beat a rule?

I absolutely believe stuff is going on to beat the droop rule. This is racing after all. I'm completely neutral on the droop rule, couldn't tell you if it's worthwhile or not. I just have a problem with people saying the racing is worse when the numbers don't really show that. I've seen lots of good shows this year.
Wow
Great reach for views. This has been going on for years now when they do deck height at ride height. All they are doing is loading the rear to make it lower. What’s dumb is the droop rule and checking it after the race.

Yes, which is why I said multiple times this is nothing new. It's notable though because we don't normally see photos of the antics. Thanks for stopping by.
I always bent the rules but never cheated. It's the mother of invention.
Not surprised to see Jason feger, a known cheater, for doing such.
Do you ever actually go to the dirt races! Never see interviews at the track or footage!
cheating is stealing money from the good guys that earned it.
Best cheater wins
👍👍👍
🎉
Its all legal until you get teched!
FLOracing is shady.
Anyone can cheat.. that's the lazy way out. Be a real racer n get back to it's roots. Play in the grey make them write new rules cause of you.
Thanks!
