What an interesting weekend the 35 car of kamrath wins the feature but then gets dqed for the carb.
IM sure every one would have liked to have seen him take those 6 inch rods out which stock are to be 5.7 maybe they will put that cheated up 602 crate in with the cam and under cover porting..

SORRY BOYS CANT CALL 911 ON THIS ONE THEY CANT HELP YA

pretty bad when you have to charge a woman for roughing you up! lmao go mrs. b ! great run by chance in the tc feature, talk about DOMINATION, and big congrats to chris for a solid second. best race of the day, too bad we had to wait so long. i think the thunders should be called Pro Thunders because they showed who had the real talent . great job to all!

Wesley and 3-Wide.........if Mitchell had have held on to it instead of spinning out(can't say whether it was on purpose or not).....but I find it very ironic that after Walters takes his place behind him and follows him around the track......he pulls into pit lane.......he knew in my opinion that he screwed up. If you want to race like the big boys...then you take your thumps like the big boys. And honestly....if I was in Walters shoes...going into turn 3...heading to the checkered......I would have parked the 22 very hard into the wall. But after the race, in the pits...Mitchell showed who he truly is.....and I'm pretty sure he will see that wall one day. And whether I'm a Walters fan or not.....he won that race in my opinion......he had the car to beat and the experience to get the job done!! As I said before.....he had crossed the finish line prior to the yellow being thrown.......and again I will say...bad officiating there. And yes Wesley....it was the best AC I have seen so far(excluding the PLM) some good hard racing and plenty for the fans to watch.

very poor officiating all weekend in my opinion! you could cut the time in half if somebody cuffed and shackled the flag man to the stand. holy crap he loves to wander!

Yes he did, but if he had of just nudged the 22 up the track in 3, he would have still won the race.Instead he lost his cool and dumped him...............................but it sure was exciting!

pp12....aint that the truth...that flagman seems to think he is the show or something...i dont know him maybe he is a nice guy but he sure gives off an arrogant glow to me...he did the same thing saturday and i remember last year he walked off the stands pouting over something walked up to the tower then down the track holding up the racing for 15 minutes while were freezing our assests and they were out of coffee and hot chocolate....and his white flag is grey he needs a new one...lol

If the race director and flagman thought they were doing a good job they were sadly mistaken. We left halfway through the 'pro' late model enduro disgusted with the wasted time watching cars under caution and the flagmen walking down to the track to rearrange backmarkers.
There was a schedule posted, with more than adequate time for each race. And all they had to do was stick to the schedule. Count caution flags when its running long as they said they would. Time limit the races. Fans come to watch races not caution laps. Sunset has it right, Kawartha has it right, Delaware has always had it right, and now even Flamboro occasionally can do it right. Peterboro is screwed, and I cannot explain why they can't fix it. JP that should be priority #1 for next year. I won't be back until I hear it is fixed.

I can't agree more about the flagman. No disrespect to racers but if your are 2 or three laps down, who gives a shit. The ones to worry about are the lead lap cars. get em straight and let em race. I only went on Sunday with my whole family. $75 to watch an incompetant flagman. I have seen him flag over the years and he is no better now than he ever was. I think a change at the flag stand is def in order. I thought it would get better after the mods but was sadly mistaken. Is it that hard to put lead cars at the front and lap markers at the back?? Think not. I must say that the thunder cars ran an incredible race. Congrats goes to them. The "pro lates".......I have seen as good demos as what I saw there. I think if they had an extended green....81x Mercer would have won. Overall, the racing was good, the flagman sucked ass.

Every year we talk about the flagman and the delays to get the show in and I totally agree; let's hope some year they get it right but whata show! I also have to comment on improper restarts. I have seen this for years and why they don't change is ridiculous. If the outside car jumps the green on a start they throw the green and then shortly after the yellow. There is always that accordian effect and sometimes you end up with wrecked racecars when there isn't even racing going on; not sure what else they could do but maybe don't throw the green or go green and yellow together (discuss it at drivers meeting) because I hate seeing good cars wrecked when this happens. My new favourite car, #22 LLM lol followed closely by the #77 Super LM (lol); I love Fall Colours!

I already said my piece of the LLM race, moving on to the Thunders...which again proves to be the best racing..even last year once we got past the big wreck it was really clean good hard racing. The LM race has turned into a joke..it's been that way for years, I'm not to sure what to do about it, but it annoys me less now because it's expected to be caution filled wreck fest.
Lining up cars seems to be a very big problem..maybe even more so this year then pervious years, radios would be a huge help but I'm sure thats no doable with the cost and everything, can't they just on the back stretch pull all the lap cars to the inside.....all the lead lap cars go past, then the offical on the front stretch works on the lead lap cars order..offical on the back stretch does the lap cars, and it should only take 1 lap and then your order is set, instead of trying to have all the officals work on everything at once it just makes a mess. Suprised theres no talk about the Hanley v.s Wilson wanna be UFC fighters in turn #1 there, I'm not a huge fan of Hanley, but Wilson took a "bump" a bit to far by just turning Hanley into the outside wall like that...although I'm sure it made everyone happy because the only way Hanley isn't going to win is if his car is wrecked. Overall I though this was one of the better Autumn Colours, a lot of cars, a lot of good racing...and the normall crazyness.
