Loved the exchange between drivers. I wished I had all day to troll their social media accounts to find this stuff. I’m sure there’s more from other drivers. Crazy. Thanks for including. Let’s get dirty! Great show!
Of this isnt Hudson O Neal then it will be interesting to see who replaces Dotson! Would love to see a veteren take the reigns or another young driver!
I was super critical of the Stockton track and I really glad to see that they saw the problems too and are working to make improvements. It would have been easy to just say “fuck you armchair racer” but instead they are making improvements. The proof will be in the pudding but respect for making an effort.
So tomorrow is Sprint Car Day (4/10). I have been a Sprint car fan since I was young back in the '70s. When did sprint cars actually become officially 410s? It seems like I remember engine sizes being all different sizes in the '70s & '80s.
I was told by a driver for Coltman Farms last year that Mr Coltman was worth 750 million dollars I was told by another driver Saturday night that he wouldn't take sponsor money from them because of some unsavory extra curricular activities they partake in outside of racing so I don't know just what I was told by drivers from Georgia where Coltman farms is from
Arrowhead is a true gem and it did rubber up a little but it was windy as hell so mother nature is a tough old bitch. Not arrowheads fault what a show piece that place is
Does he have a Lucas oil championship? How many Crown Jewels does he have.? When he gets all that then we can compare. Until then he’s just another driver without a ride or resume.
How many imca wins does Hudson have? How many usmts wins? They took different paths to get where they are.... there's more to it than just winning a race or a championship...it's about promoting your sponsor's brand....O'Neal is more of a wild card than Dotson. They both are extremely talented.
Really struggle to understand the track safety conditions of tracks in the US, in this case Stockton. Watching the NARC race, at the Stockton track looked third world. What astounds me, is taking about improving track safety after an actual race meeting has been completed. Down in New Zealand and Australia you would simply not see tracks designed like Stockton. The tracks are safety regulated under Speedway New Zealand and Speedway Australia. A berm on the inside of a track is only going to launch a car if it goes over the berm. A few laps into the feature, a car went flying over the inside berm and could have easily continued hitting cars entering/exiting the corner at speed. Armco barriers aren't safe, and aren't used on New Zealand and Australia speedway tracks. The other issue is protruding fencing exposing corners and edges. At the end of the Stockton feature, the winner Cole Macedo gets pushed back to the winners circle between a huge gap with no protection and exposed edges of a concrete wall. US tracks seem to be designed with these open spaces in corners for a speedway car to leave the track with no safety catch fencing. It makes no sense and seems very dangerous to allow a car to continue flipping into an open area without dissipation of the energy and force. A catch fence, catchs the vechile and stops that dissipation force and energy. We had an incident in the weekend at a track here in New Zealand. Thankfully no spectators were hurt. This incident is currently under investigation by Speedway New Zealand to ensure this doesn't happen again.
I don’t get the complaints about Stockton because the previous configuration was nothing special. Sure it might take some time to be just right but people should be open minded with this one and see how it plays out, it can’t really be worse than before
At least they can get to fixing it soon. When my local track was built they realized really quick it was a horrible configuration and it took 6 years before they had enough money to fix it.
The track conditions on race day were bad but understandable with all the rain NorCal has had, either race a rough track or no race. The bigger issue was the terrible track reconfiguration, they struck out on that one
They could make the fan experience and the track configuration conflict with the pump house way better if they moved the front stretch fence 30 feet closer to the stands. But that would make too much sense.
@Tshredderted I'm pretty sure the frontstretch fence is relatively permanent. I can't see that moving with everything else in front of it. Gotta remember this is an old horse track, this dirt track was an after thought by comparison. And it used to be even farther away! Look at videos of it when it hosted its first WoO race.

I've never seen so many cars struggle with track conditions like at Stockton. Glad to hear they are working to fix it
The first time in history that a Hudson replaced a Dotson .
I heard Dominic handles all of Gios fighting.
Can not wrap my brain that Jacob would make a comment. With him going High Limit races soon,it should blow over
I hope that they get Stockton in order. We need all the tracks we can get. The Gio and Jacob thing is funny. They are basically my two favorites.
Let’s Go HUD!!!!
Ethan is a wheelman for sure he shouldn't have a problem finding another ride
Ethan is a wheelman hopefully he gets a better ride. He’s another Ricky Thornton Jr he’ll be fine.
Thanks for another episode of rumors and not sure nothing has been substantiated
sprint day is 4/10. Wednesday
Thanks for the reminder! I probably would have forgotten.
did you hear B Shepp will be in a sprint car with the world of outlaws at jacksonville speedway?
Gravel actually caused that contact between Gio and Jacob. Gravel has caused same type collisions at least 3 other times this year.
I like the way you think don't have a so called favorite driver just have favorite race lots of passing
Of this isnt Hudson O Neal then it will be interesting to see who replaces Dotson! Would love to see a veteren take the reigns or another young driver!

It’s real and Jacob wasn’t happy but it was a joke and gio took it wrong kind of spicy reply so yeah I’d say it’s real
You're welcome!

All sprints aren’t 410ci they were prolly all just mixed in
@@expow3255 I understand there are 305 and 360s but all those are max cubic inches for their divisions. When did 410 become the max?
You need to go to fairbury
Disappointed to hear Dotson is out. Been aware of his talent for many years now since he was wheeling a SportMod out here in CA.
Eaton is a good driver
I was told by a driver for Coltman Farms last year that Mr Coltman was worth 750 million dollars I was told by another driver Saturday night that he wouldn't take sponsor money from them because of some unsavory extra curricular activities they partake in outside of racing so I don't know just what I was told by drivers from Georgia where Coltman farms is from
Exactly what type of unsavory ??? jw 🤷♂️
What happen to Gio at 81?
He ran over Jake Allen Allen was going for the leaf and fastest car on track
And he finished 3rd got outta the car and bashed arrowhead speedway like the true punk that he is
Arrowhead is a true gem and it did rubber up a little but it was windy as hell so mother nature is a tough old bitch. Not arrowheads fault what a show piece that place is
Actually he got ran over by the 41. Same circumstances as the Jacob Allen deal.
Dotson is as good a driver as O'Neal but no where near the hot head....
Does he have a Lucas oil championship? How many Crown Jewels does he have.? When he gets all that then we can compare. Until then he’s just another driver without a ride or resume.
How many imca wins does Hudson have? How many usmts wins? They took different paths to get where they are.... there's more to it than just winning a race or a championship...it's about promoting your sponsor's brand....O'Neal is more of a wild card than Dotson. They both are extremely talented.

World of outlaws Golden boy gravel started that shit he got into that car and then that car went up and got in to Allen
Tiny tracks suck. Tiny muddy tracks even worse
Gio needs to relax, grow up pal !!!
Go Get them Gio, and Stockton needs a lot of work the track was really BAD
The track conditions on race day were bad but understandable with all the rain NorCal has had, either race a rough track or no race. The bigger issue was the terrible track reconfiguration, they struck out on that one
