    2016 Gateway Dirt Nationals Track Test – Kenny Wallace & Gordy Gundaker

    Some of the very first Gateway Dirt Nationals photos are posted below. These are Gateway Dirt photos from a track test conducted on Tuesday.

    I was at the Edwards Jones Dome all day today as the staff puts the final prep work into the racing surface. This weekend, will probably be the biggest dirt track race of the year. You’re seeing the first images of the brand new track.

    The Gateway Dirt Nationals conducted the very first on-track test today. Test drivers were local boys. Kenny Wallace driving a dirt modified and Gordy Gundaker driving a dirt late model. We were there along, shooting photos as well as video of the Gateway Dirt track test.

    The track test was very useful to the event staff. The track had a low spot on the straight away. A slope that appeared un-visible to the human eye. But when you fly over that spot in a racecar you can feel bumps before you can see them. The crew is going to go to work and fix that spot of the track before the pit gates open on Wednesday.

    Kenny Wallace also shared several others bits of info on the track shape and construction. He suggested to Kevin Gundaker that dirt be added all the way around the track wall. Building up a 6 inch wall of dirt before you reach the edge of the racing surface and the wall behind it.

    The track test shown in the Gateway Dirt video below was a final attempt to perfect the track surface before the racing begins on Thursday. Kenny Wallace was happy to share information with drivers coming to the event. Even going so far as to let the dirt modified drivers what gear they should be running.

    Kenny Wallace has tips for drivers coming to the Gateway Dirt Nationals, “We have a .735 gear in it. I went high on purpose and what I found is it’s faster up there. Longer radius but it’s good out there. ”

    Kenny has a ‘less throttle’ suggestion for racers, “My biggest suggestion to everybody is. That time I got to wide open. Just a little bit. Just to see if I could do it. It’s not necessary to be wide open. But that time I was able to do that and get better forward bite up off the corner.”

    He continued, “Then at the end. I slowed up just like we would do at any bull ring and tracks got a lot of grip in it. This is the dirt that they use for the motocross races. It was voted the best dirt of all of motocross racing. This dirt has been sifted a lot. I holds moisture. This dirt reminds me of (Belleville, IL) Belle-Clair Speedway.”

    On his gearing selection, “I would definitely start out with a .735 gear. You might start out with a .700 but I just think you’re going to be safer, make sure you start out with a .735 and you don’t have to run wide open. I don’t really see it necessary to run wide open.

    I was a racing fan well before I was a media member. As a lifelong dirt track racing fan it was one of the most exciting things I’ve seen. All those emotions and it was just two cars on track, a test session. I truely cannot wait for Thursday, 20 cars being 10 times as exciting.

    Racing at the Edward Jones Dome begins on Thursday. The dirt late model and dirt modified drivers will also hit the track on Friday. Saturday is the main event. 3 solid days of fantastic dirt racing action in the middle of December.

    A New NASCAR Sponsor Isn’t Wanted

    A New NASCAR Sponsor Isn't Wanted - 2017 NASCAR Sponsor

    November 21, 2016 by Shane Walters

    2017 NASCAR Sponsor Isn’t Wanted by Fans and It Isn’t Needed For the Sports Success

    Placing a corporation randomly into the name of your sport is gross and tacky. Changing the name of your sport is the ultimate form of selling out. That doesn’t do the sport any favors in it’s appeal to newer fans.

    NASCAR is in search of yet another title sponsor. Essentially, right now the deal with Sprint expires. If NASCAR executives can sign a sponsor by February. Then, yet again, the name of the sport is set to change.

    The $100 million/year price tag might be very enticing but it comes with a costly side effect. Changing the name of your sport every 10 years means you also have to start from scratch every 10 years from a marketing standpoint.

    I come across many motorsports fans, regularly. When I mention the ‘NASCAR Xfinity Series’ half the time I’m instantly hit with a question, “What’s that?” They know what it is, they just don’t know the series by it’s current name. They know the series as the NASCAR Nationwide Series or perhaps even the NASCAR Busch Series.

    That’s a problem. These are fans who watch some form of racing on a weekly basis. While they might not watch NASCAR all the time, they do watch it. A constant name change directly effects attendance from the casual fan. They aren’t going to click on something in the TV guide or travel to the racetrack if they don’t know what it is they are watching. This massive marketing issue is all due to a regular name change of the sport itself.

    RELATED: Who is Sponsoring NASCAR in 2017?

    2017 NASCAR Sponsor Isn't Wanted - Daytona 500 Marketing

    The Daytona 500 is extremely well marketed and as a result it’s the most watched race in America. By far. It attracts the casual fan and every year it’s also the biggest chance to grow the fan base. That’s mostly because it’s a fantastic race. However, I think there’s an underlining secret to the success of the 500 mile race…

    It hasn’t changed it’s name since it’s inception in 1959. For nearly 60 years, people have had the branding of the “Daytona 500” placed in front of their face. It doesn’t need a new marketing campaign, starting from zero every 10 years.

    For 60 years, Non-racing fans have seen news regarding the Daytona 500 come across their television screens every year in February. Even if they don’t pay attention, they still pick up on what it is. Each news story is a billboard. As a result, people who aren’t even a racing fan know what the “Daytona 500” is. This very approach should be taken to the label of the sport itself.

    Name it, then don’t touch it. We don’t need a 2017 NASCAR sponsor. It’s a backwards concept to change the name of your sport, catering to a new sponsor every 10 years. That’s the silliest thing you could possibly do. Could you imagine the Major League Sprint Baseball, National Sprint Basketball Association or the National Hockey Sprint League. That’s a completely ludicrous concept and it’s equally ridiculous in NASCAR. Yet, NASCAR hasn’t figured that out just yet.

    2017 NASCAR Sponsor Isn't Needed

    Beyond the general marketing flaw. Older fans are far more accepting of this mass over-sponsorship, in every aspect of NASCAR. After all, if it hasn’t bothered them before why would it bother them now? But the older fans aren’t the only people that matter. The sport we all love so much happens to be in the middle of a demographic crisis.

    There’s a new generation that NASCAR needs to attract in order to grow the sport. That new generation doesn’t even feel the need for a driver’s license, after all, they have Uber. This very same generation piled up like an ant colony in support of a socialist. Bernie Sanders, the anti-corporation, eco-friendly, free college for everyone, democrat.

    I’m not trying to be political. I’m simply stating that never before has a known Socialist had so much traction in primaries leading up to an election. That fact alone tells you a lot about the demographic NASCAR needs to target. Sanders nearly won the democratic nomination, mostly due to his large following of college kids, the very people NASCAR needs as ‘new’ fans to secure the future of the sport.

    As you read that, many of you are saying “We don’t want them!” But you’re so wrong and you don’t get it.

    Taking that approach will create certain death of the sport as we know it. Older fans won’t be alive forever. If NASCAR can’t appeal to a new generation, the sport doesn’t grow. Instead, it will continue its pattern of a shrinking fan base.

    Who's Sponsoring NASCAR in 2017?

    A shrinking fan base has a mass of negative effects over time. That means, niche tracks close it’s doors and transform into housing developments. Teams begin closing up shop and suddenly the sport takes a very different and drastic direction in the wrong path. NASCAR will survive, but the little guy in terms of both teams and tracks, will not survive a diminishing fan base.

    The sport is still thriving off the mass appeal and quick growth of the 90-00’s. However, we are fast approaching a large problem. If NASCAR can’t attract the new generation of fans in a much bigger way, our sport is in trouble. They need a consistent marketing campaign aimed at people throughout their entire lives.

    The over-sponsored selling out is part of the on-going joke of the sport, as seen from outsiders. Nothing gives that joke more merit than putting a corporation in the name of the sport itself. It makes us look like idiots.

    Self-control from NASCAR executives can go a long way, paying dividends for years. Saying no, stopping yourself from completely selling out to corporations would be a big step in attracting the much needed younger fan base.

    I Hated Jeff Gordon until…

    I used to Hate Jeff Gordon until - Jeff Gordon Leading Bristol

    October 30, 2016 by Shane Walters

    After Visiting My First NASCAR race in 1995 I Learned to Hate Jeff Gordon and So Did You

    I hated Jeff Gordon. In 1995, I remember tossing a Jeff Gordon die-cast off a 3 story roof. Why? I thought a Jeff Gordon car looked best when it had a bit of damage.

    I visited my first NASCAR race in 1995 at Bristol Motor Speedway. Jeff Gordon was the young California kid who came into the sport in 1992. When it came to short tracks he was a mix of fast and aggressive. The very things that make short track kings. The same thing that makes fans hate you.

    Jeff Gordon bumps Rusty Wallace at Bristol

    He wasn’t at all afraid to move a driver out of the way and take the win. It didn’t matter if you were a rookie or a NASCAR legend. All the same driving characteristics of Dale Earnhardt. He had all the things that put on a great show, bring fans to the stands and provide entertaining racing.

    Jeff Gordon and Rusty Wallace battled nearly every year at Bristol. The #2 vs the #24 resulted in a lot of bump and runs. The classic battles might have even resulted in the invention that bump-and-run phrase.

    However, in the mid 90’s, the face of NASCAR was just beginning to change. The old Southern boys, sporting a mustache were on their way out. Jeff Gordon was one of the first to come through the door. But, Jeff Gordon knocked the door off it’s hinges. He won his first race in his debut season and didn’t take long to pick up his first title. In 1995, Jeff Gordon won his first of four NASCAR Winston Cup Series championships.

    I used to Hate Jeff Gordon until - Bristol Motor Speedway 2005

    He and other young drivers would soon become the new face of NASCAR. If there’s anything I’ve gathered being a NASCAR fan for 20+ years it’s that NASCAR fans don’t like change, of any kind.

    Boo’s of Jeff Gordon ensued. Parade laps, pace laps any laps resulted in booing of Jeff Gordon. If he was highlighted on the jumbotron, you’d hear boo’s over the sounds of the engines. And this was at Bristol, where cars are on the extra side of loud bouncing of the surrounding aluminum seating.

    Some fans took it up a notch. They were strong willed to hate Jeff Gordon more than the next guy. If he won, you can bet a beer can would be lifted over the Bristol fence, taking aim at the #24 car. Which was amazingly stupid by the way.

    The only time you witnessed cheers for Jeff Gordon was when he was in the wall. One year I remember seeing Jeff hit the wall in turn 3. Fans jumped out of their seats, spilt all their beer and nachos, just to cheer for a crash. I was 10 years old. 120,000 people (Bristol was smaller then) cheering against Jeff Gordon influenced me to do the same.

    My hatred for Jeff Gordon lasted until 2005. That’s around the time I realized all the the old guys were gone. The edge of the drivers had been grounded off. The new driver personalities were robotic. The strong edgy characters of the drivers in the sport were gone.

    With the exception of Jeff Gordon who was in the sport just early enough to pick up a bit of the old style. Once the young California kid, was now the only driver left with ties to the good ol’ days. I had an epiphany realization that I had actually come full circle. I was now a fan of Jeff Gordon.

    Right now, Jeff Gordon is running his final NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race as we speak. His 805th start will end his career at the short track of Martinsville Speedway. I hope he picks up 94th career in his final NASCAR race.

    Bristol Motor Speedway Low Groove Returns – Old Bristol is Back!

    August 19, 2016 by Shane Walters

    The Lower Groove at Bristol Motor Speedway Has Returned for the 2016 Bristol Night Race

    In case you didn’t catch the memo. After years of fan complaints and tens of thousands of season passes canceled, BMS has listened. They have brought the Bristol low groove back into the picture. New Bristol meets the old Bristol, this weekend.

    RELATED: Bristol Motor Speedway – The Last Great Colosseum

    Based on the characteristics of Wednesday nights NASCAR truck race, the fans are sure to start filling the seats again in no time. Fans and drivers are both impressed. It won’t be an empty colosseum for much longer.

    It’s racey, so racey the lower groove is once again the preferred groove. Welcome to the old Bristol, circa 2002. One groove right around the bottom, bumper to bumper for an action packed Saturday night short track race.

    What was the problem? If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

    The high groove was nice, but it wasn’t Bristol. Slower drivers could run the high line and block any faster driver behind them. It was literally next to impossible to make any pass at Bristol. Even when we are talking about lapped cars.

    Even with multiple grooves and the outside being the longer way around it was impossible to pass. Sure, the outside was a longer lap, distance wise. But you had more banking to work with, a lot more. Your momentum made up the difference rendering the bottom groove useless.

    Sure the bump and run was still an option. However, when everyone is running inches from the wall, bumping meant putting someone in the fence and risk collecting yourself in the accident. That’s not racing, that’s wrecking.

    Before the multi-groove surface repave in 2007 you could make passes. You could get a better drive off and dive under them at the end of the straight away. In recent years however, you couldn’t out-brake someone running the high groove. You can only slide job them, which rarely works.

    With the old Bristol Motor Speedway, you could bump slower drivers slightly in the center of the corner and slide under them. That was racing. Nobody was wrecked in the fence, well a few were, but for the most part the moved car just lost a few positions and the racing resumed.

    Bristol Motor Speedway Low Groove - Track Sealer 2016 2How did they fix Bristol in 2016? Bristol track officials went to work on the lower line specifically. Instead of tearing up the entire surface and starting from scratch, they polished what was already there.

    Very literally, polished. Since April, they have sanded the bottom groove smooth. Smooth as a warehouse floor and in track practice 1 it was as slick as one too. However, once the rubber built up on the surface it came to life.

    They treated the bottom groove at Bristol Motor Speedway ahead of the race weekend. The race track concrete treating process included applying a resin and conditioning it with a tire machine, a similar method as is used in drag racing.

    Rain did not effect the groove at all. It had the grip and provided a great truck race on Wednesday night. Now, the NASCAR Xfinity Series tonight. Then, Saturday night it’s 500 laps of the old Bristol with the the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

    Dale Earnhardt Jr has been offering this very solution for years. He offered an interview back in April of this year about how the track sealer on the old Bristol was a secret to getting around that place. The little bit of track sealer was used over the yellow line on the old track, that gave grip entering the corner. And if you hold it all the way to the bottom, you had a lap time going.

    So, here in 2016, ten years later, they have brought it back. Only instead of using the sealer on just the bottom 5 inches of the race track it’s been used on the entire bottom groove. It’s forced everyone back to the bottom for some great racing.

    I’m excited. Spread the word.

    Dirt Track Racing Safety is Lacking

    August 9, 2016 by Shane Walters

    Dirt Track Racing Safety – Basically no Advancements

    Dirt racing safety improvements are non existent and I can’t understand why. We’ve seen countless dirt track deaths over the years. Basically nothing has changed and nothing is being developed in regards to safety yet we keep going faster.

    The death of Bryan Clauson has me frustrated with dirt car sanctions specifically. Drivers and teams aren’t going to act themselves. Safety means added weight and added weight means slower lap times.

    Race cars can always be safer, sacrificing weight and/or appearance. But it takes a sanctioning body to enforce new standards in safety. In most cases the sanctioning bodies even need to develop the new technologies themselves.

    Furthermore, dirt drivers can usually be run under multiple sanctions with the same car. If a sanction acts too drastically on rule changes they are excluding all dirt teams who consider the other series their ‘primary’ series. Meaning it will divide the class and force drivers/teams to pick between the two.

    We cant have that. So, it forces multiple sanctions to act together when enforcing new rules. That in itself is a separate issue as people don’t generally agree, on anything, in any discussion. If people can’t agree and sanctions can’t act together then the vote in general, is to leave things alone.

    Dirt Racing Safety is Lacking- Shane WaltersA midget or sprint car is very unique high-powered racing machinery. Safety components aren’t going to trickle down from NASCAR or the automotive industry. Things that work on a NASCAR Racecar won’t necessary apply to these winged or non-winged machines.

    That means the dirt racing sanctioning bodies need to develop their own forms of technology specific to their respective machines. NASCAR isn’t going to do it for them. Yet, nobody is stepping up to the plate to do so, nobody.

    There is no form of the NASCAR Research & Development Center for dirt. When accidents happen in NASCAR, cars are impounded and dissected to find solutions and answers.

    Just this weekend at Watkins Glen a NASCAR Xfinity Series car exploded. Curiosity all around, as nobody had seen an explosion of that sort. NASCAR impounded the car. They wanted to find out what happened so they could prevent it in the future.

    In dirt, there’s virtually no pro-activeness on safety. We just have a lot of head turning going on from sanctions, manufactures, drivers and fans.

    If you take look at other forms on motorsports, it’s the very opposite. A death is an eyeopener to something that can be improved. The wrecks are studied to prevent injuries in the future. Cars come back to the track re-built, safer.

    The death of Dale Earnhardt brought countless changes to NASCAR. Safer walls designed to hinder the g forces to the driver on impact. Beyond the impact spot itself, foam has been placed inside the doors of the race cars, acting the same as safer walls on the object itself.

    Dirt Racing Safety Improvements - Shane WaltersThe safer barrier as it stands, likely wouldn’t work in dirt racing. Dirt would build up behind the steel wall and in between the foam. That would make the wall harder as the foam itself wouldn’t be allowed to compress and absorb the impact as it was designed.

    I’m no rocket scientist, but there certainly seams to be a way around that. A flexible cover. A cover placed over the top of the wall should prevent dirt getting behind the wall.

    Again, I’m not an engineer, I don’t have the answers myself. But I haven’t even seen anything so much as tested and that’s more my point. Meaning nobody is even attempting to make safer walls work on dirt tracks.

    Safer car components aren’t in development. Cars aren’t being tested. The search for the perfect chassis construction or tube placement isn’t in the works. No progress is being made in any regard to safety. This is the part that irritates me.

    The cost of such safer racing walls doesn’t help. These small dirt tracks are barely getting by as it is. These tracks are closing faster than we can build new ones. Asking track owners to install walls in the $100,000 range would put many under. But if the sanctioning bodies would work together they could force safer walls to be installed on every new dirt track built in the future. So only existing tracks would be exempt from building safer walls.

    Dirt Track Hans Device - Safer Racing EquipmentUnlike safer walls, the safety equipment worn by NASCAR drivers has actually trickled down to dirt racing drivers. Enter the hans device. This is literally the only thing, other than seat technology, that I’ve seen reach the dirt track level as far as safety advancements in nearly 20 years. 20 years of motorsports safety advancements, countless deaths, we’ve got the hans device. Even still, it should be mandatory yet it’s just an option in most series.

    F1 lost Jules Bianchi last year. Since his death F1 and the FIA have been proactive in making the cars safer. A closed cockpit has been in development by F1 teams as a result. The new cockpit was suppose to be on the grid in 2017 but it has been pushed back to 2018. They are at least working on it.

    The bulk of new safety improvements aren’t going to come from the track via things like safe walls, it’s too expensive on dying dirt tracks. While moving of wall openings and trackside objects are feasible changes to the tracks. The majority of changes need to be done to the cars themselves.

    Maybe that’s an added tube, maybe a bigger tube, maybe it’s slightly bigger car with more of a cushion area around the drivers head. Maybe it’s just a different front bumper. An inch here and an inch there will save lives. But where those extra inches should be and what they should be filled with aren’t being tested. I don’t have the answers. Nobody does because testing scenarios aren’t being carried out.

    A slightly different design isn’t going to dramatically increase the cost of cars and/or tickets. A testing facility could be setup and built by all the major dirt sanctioning bodies, or they could rent tests at the current NASCAR Research & Development Center. Then new rules and body modifications need to be formed based on testing results and those rules need to be applied to all series at once, not individually. Those rules would likely only apply to new cars, saving cost on current teams.

    When the costs are spread all the way across the board with multiple series acting together then the costs are minimized. Everyone needs to work together or we won’t get anywhere. You can’t place all the burden of dirt car safety development on one series. No one dirt series has the NASCAR sized checkbook for safety development but if you combine all the dirt series you’re getting closer.

    Part of the lack of dirt track racing safety improvements is the stubbornness to any change itself. Cars may need to be re-designed, that’s not going to go over well in any series. However, there’s a dirt track death every few months. If you aren’t embracing change or putting pressure on people who write the rules, then you are partially to blame for the next death. You won’t have to wait long to feel that burden again.

    Dirt track racing deaths don’t bring safer technology advancements to the dirt cars. Instead we turn our heads and hope for the best the next time the exact same incident occurs.
