One of these days, something really bad is gonna happen involving a damn kid racing against adults in a full sized race car. This is absolutely fucking ridiculous that it's even allowed to happen. We have quarter midgets and go karts for a reason.
Just a thought: Yes I know some people love him & some people hate him but at 64 years old,
@1sam91
just ran 3rd on a physically demanding bullring against some STACKED competition in a PA Speedweek race. That's pretty damn cool. This guy is making an ass out of father time.
That MAY be the best race I've ever witnessed anywhere. Unbelievable.
@dannydietrich
, Kyle Larson,
@LanceDewease
pat yourselves on the back. You guys earned it. Clean, hard, incredible racing.What a SHOW. Well done
@lincolnspeedway
. The best racing on earth is sprint car racing.
I'm gonna say it. You Posse homers are gonna hate me for it: but there is NOTHING on earth like watching Kyle Larson wheel a sprint car. He flat out schooled our guys on how you run a big awesome cushion.
Kyle Larson has won virtually everywhere in dozens of different cars but seeing him this pumped shows what it means to win a race
@WilliamsGrove
. I don't care what the naysayers say, this is some of the most HALLOWED GROUND in sprint car racing.
Eat a dick. I'm celebrating the holidays with my family and friends just like we have for the past 30+ years. We know how to take care of ourselves without your stupid advice. If you don't like it, tough shit.
Gatherings in our homes with people we care about feel comfortable, safe, and normal. But they’re helping drive unprecedented COVID spread.
It only takes one COVID-positive person to make everyone sick. I urge PA'ians to take precautions to stay safe.
We all have a role in the battle against
#COVID19

If you know a business is violating COVID safety rules, here's how you can report it:

Call me a selfish prick, but I hope Kyle Larson never gets back to NASCAR. I've always felt that the dirt is where he belongs. I get the fact that NASCAR brings big $$$ but damn, he's on top of the world right now. At least MY world.......
Posse or not posse. A debate waged year after year across Central PA & beyond. A debate I usually abstain from because it's usually stupid. But I think we can ALL agree on this one:
@GovernorTomWolf
is NOT Posse.
I'm the most imperfect human you'll ever meet. I've got great people in my life who accept me even with my flaws. I've been forgiven more times than I deserve. Kyle did a dumb thing. How you feel about him is up to you but I refuse to judge him based on that one dumb thing.
The "this track is better than that track" horse shit is getting old. We have several great tracks in this area. All of them have perks, all of them have flaws. All have great races, all have the occasional snoozer. Support them & quit bitching. We're lucky to have them. End rant
After what
@wcsohio
did today, I would've gladly driven 5 hours one way to support them if it were at all possible. Unfortunately I couldn't but folks, THIS is what dedication looks like. We need more tracks like this in our sport.
Some PA fans chest thump about how tough PA is yet when someone like
@CaleThomas91
comes in & struggles a little, they talk shit on him. He's a class act with loads of talent. He WILL win some races but these things aren't built over night. If you're one of the people who......
One thing I missed in all the excitement last night. I'm in the food line getting some nachos and the man in front of me who I've never met in my life, paid for my food. To say I was blown away is an understatement. Racing people are the BEST people.
I'm never gonna stop missing this guy. It will never be the same without him. I'm sure Mr. Weikert hired him to drive the Beefmobile the minute he got to heaven.
#GH27Forever
3 years. Doesn't seem like it was all that long ago. The mark this man left on the sport will never be forgotten. There wasn't anyone better on the racetrack nor was there off of the racetrack. A true legend.
#GH27Forever
Ok.....all you
@lincolnspeedway
naysayers. That was one of the best races I've ever seen. Absolute insanity. No question, race of the year so far. When this place is right, it's hard to beat.
Nice field, hell of a crowd......the psuedo intellectuals and Twitter complainers can eat some crow on this one.
@lincolnspeedway
has themselves quite a success on their hands.
I'll be damned. A huge crowd at a track that Twitter has told me time and again sucks, just went wild as Logan Schuchart won by 7 thousandths of a second with a last lap pass. Hell they even cheered for the fireworks too & 0 cautions all night. Good stuff
@WilliamsGrove

I've never in my life gone to a race with no sprint cars BUT, I think I'm going to Roaring Knob this weekend. I want to support ANY track with the balls to stand up against tyranny.
For the 2nd week in a row,
@lincolnspeedway
doesn't take the weather forecast bait and puts forth a well run program with a great field and a racy surface 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I haven't the slightest damn clue how or why I have 843 followers. But nevertheless, I want to wish every single one of you and your loved ones a merry Christmas.
This is flat out awesome to see and as usual, people bitch. If Port Royal did this, some of these same people would be drooling all over themselves. Fuck em. Way to go Lincoln. Got a nice day, may as well use it.
𝐖𝐄 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐑𝐒𝐃𝐀𝐘, 𝐅𝐄𝐁𝐑𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝟐𝟑 𝐚𝐭 𝟕:𝟑𝟎𝐏𝐌! How can you not race on a 75 degree day in February and we just can’t wait to get the Central PA racing season started!
More info:
In case you didn't notice: Brent mentioned what it means to win the National Open BEFORE he mentioned the money. He actually forgot it's 65K. THAT'S what this race & this track means to Central PA. Isn't about the money. It's about immortalizing yourself in the history books.
I'm tired of video games. I want sprint cars. Real, fire breathing, 900 horsepower, mud slinging, slide jobbing, fast as fuck & more powerful than a volcano erupting sprint cars. Nothing else will do.
I don't give a fuck what anyone says/thinks.
@lincolnspeedway
is a great track and the same can be said for the rest of our tracks. We should be APPRECIATIVE of them....not bashing them just because of a bad night. We are LUCKY to have what we have here.
I'm old enough to remember a field full of
@ASCoC
and PA sprint cars wheel packing Port Royal late one night after a heavy storm left it saturated. Warm ups went off at 11 pm. It wasn't just some guys, it was everyone. Dewease, Shaffer, Kauffman, Kerr, Huntley...
It's been 4 years since we lost Greg Hodnett. It still doesn't seem real sometimes. His loss left a void that will never be filled. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. Greg was no doubt a legend and his presence will be felt for as long as sprint car racing exists.
I'm 33 years old and I've been going to sprint car races since I was born. I've seen virtually every form of race car the U.S. has to offer live and in person and I STILL find myself wondering sometimes how the hell a sprint car does what it does. Breathtaking.
#COVID19
UPDATE: In Pennsylvania, masks must now be worn whenever anyone leaves home.
This is essential to stopping the recent increase in
#COVID19
cases in Pennsylvania.
More about this requirement:
All the pissing and moaning about the format at Knoxville last night and christ forbid the track be a little moist.....yet look at the top 10 in points. The best rose to the occasion. Champions find a way to success, losers make excuses for not being successful......
Teachable moment for those of us who get to see sprint cars weekly......look how stoked this crowd was to see something that most of us take for granted. Think about that the next time you wanna bitch because the track is too wet or "only" 20 cars showed up. We're spoiled rotten.
Just an absolute tremendous night of
@WorldofOutlaws
racing in their first appearance to The Rev! Caution-free for their entire program; 3 different feature leaders with 5 lead changes; SRO crowd & one of the best electrifying atmospheres I've seen in awhile. Perfect victory lane
We have 60 410 sprint cars in competition at 2 different tracks....both top notch...within 1.5 hours of one another in Central PA tonight. No complaints from me. Life is good 👍🏻.
A free gallon of milk is usually a good thing but not when it comes from local farmers who are giving it away before they're forced to dump it. These are good people who are the hardest workers on earth. They don't deserve this shit. My heart goes out to them.
#ReOpenPA
I can't put into proper words how lucky I am to have a wife that allows me to follow my passion of sprint car racing. She goes to the occasional race but isn't a fanatic like me yet she lets me go to pretty much any race anywhere. Most women aren't like that. I'm damn lucky.
Al Hamilton was many things to many people. Some loved him, some hated him. But there is absolutely no debate, he raised the bar sky high in Central PA. Everyone either wanted to beat him, or join him. RIP Mr. Hamilton & thank you for all you did for our sport.
Random thought: "Practice social distancing" they say. Well......wasn't that what
@LanceDewease
did at Port this past Saturday? He distanced himself BIG time.
A guy who is often overlooked and underrated because of the ridiculously talented era in which he raced. One hell of a good racer who was always in the mix.
I'll say this to the goons who practically vandalized Lernerville for a couple of signs. You're a fucking embarrassment to sprint car racing. Let's see what YOU would do if some brainless twat came onto YOUR property stealing YOUR shit. You're pathetic.
Gotta say, I'm laughing my ass off at all the people acting like
@WilliamsGrove
is the only track to ever cancel a race because of prior rains. You people are truly fucking pathetic. It couldn't be more obvious that ya'll just look for any reason to give them shit. Fucking losers
I should be at home eating chicken soup right now but naaaaah. Here I am
@WilliamsGrove
freezing my nads off. Case in point, being a sprint car fan is a mental illness.
Well folks, I'm going to self quarantine......not from the virus. I couldn't give less of a fuck about that.....but from the hysteria & craziness currently taking place in society. Fuck this.
Well, it's official. I got the keys today. I'm officially a home owner. One little problem.....there's a fucking bat flying around in the basement. Prepare to die you invasive little bastard.
How about all the naysayers and experts who questioned
@HeffnerRacing
putting
@devon_borden
in the car? Where are ya now? Way to go young man. Hell of a job.....and with a broken right rear shock to boot!
Outside of the WoO regulars, there are maybe a handful of drivers who have to be considered a serious contender to win anywhere they unload.
@TimShaffer49
is one of those.
#Legend
Finished up the
@indyraceparts
@JoeySaldana
model I've been working on. It was challenging considering I'd never done a model before but it turned out pretty good all things considered.
Not that anyone cares, but anyone I see on my timeline who actually thinks Larson left Rico win last night is getting muted & blocked because you are the dumbest human life forms on the fucking planet & I don't have the time or crayons to deal with such idiocy.
Funny. All I've heard for YEARS is
@WilliamsGrove
needs improvements. Now they're doing just that & the dumb fucks still bitch. Don't like the place? STAY HOME. Don't try to be a turd in the punch bowl for those who do like it. There's other tracks to go to.
I've been around sprint car racing my entire life. I can tell when a driver is driving with confidence and right now,
@JacobAllen1a
is driving with absolute confidence. Tough break at the end, but he absolutely owned this race.
What a shitty night. I'd go to bed, but I can't sleep. Hug your loved one's a little tighter. Life is fragile and at times, unforgiving. Sometimes things that bring us so much joy, turn against us in a nano second and before we know what happened, it's already done.
This may surprise you but I don't give even the slightest fuck about the royal family or their "problems." And unless Harry or William have a Maxim in their garage being put together for the 2020 season, it's gonna stay that way.
Gotta give major props to
@lincolnspeedway
. They were dealt a shit hand with the weather. They easily could've canceled but instead, they waited it out. Fred got the track in great shape given the excess moisture and the program has been ran very efficiently. Much appreciated.
Every time I pull into the parking lot
@WilliamsGrove
speedway, I can almost feel the history. This is hallowed ground christened by all the legends of our sport going back to the very beginning.
@LDmotorsports
is sooo gracious in victory lane & especially in defeat! Never blames anyone else or the race track!
Many drivers should take note & quit being so whiny all the time!!!

Until tonight, only 2 drivers had reached the 300 win mark with the WoO. Steve Kinser and Sammy Swindell. Welcome to the most elite club in sprint car racing
