idk who got 3rd was a decent derby I guess I've seen a little bit better.
dont know who won little cars left after big cars was over but from I seen of little cars they put on a show!

[bigrod]

The big car show was tap fest in my opinion... The compacts put on a good show.

[maddog]

wouldve been better if it hadnt have rained then they wouldve had a full track instead of a messed track that was built ever which way.

[bigrod]

Yeah the track layout didn't help, but they still acted like the didn't want to hit each other lol.

[maddog]

5 big cars ah lolthey didnt wanna junk each other i dont blame them they cut the payouts for big cars so I understand they just wanted to play a little if they was more then 15 cars then I would expect a better show lol

[maddog]

in my opinion the little cars put the show on as always maybe the 13th at columbia big cars will be better and have a better car count as usual
