Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Veteran Michigan Late Model Racer Eric Spangler & Merritt Speedway Owner Michael Blackmer
Q: Do you think the track conditions were the main cause of the incident?
Spangler indicated the track grooves and dangerous conditions contributed to a difficult race and possible rollover risk; Blackmer emphasized the track's initial open state and subsequent concerns.
Veteran Michigan Late Model Racer Eric Spangler & Merritt Speedway Owner Michael Blackmer
Q: What happened at Merritt that led to your Facebook post?
Spangler explained it was a night with many cautions and track conditions that felt dangerous, prompting him to share information with fans; Blackmer later restored points and clarified the situation.
Back To Back Feature Winner Devin Shiels & Kennedale Flagger Kevin Fry
Q: What happened during the Kennedale incident and why did you walk away?
The driver under caution hit another car, the flagger black-flagged him as per the rules, and after the promoter offered a resolution, the flagger stood by his call and then walked off the track to avoid further conflict, emphasizing safety and rule enforcement.
Ohio Valley Late Model Series Racer Corey DeLancey
Q: What was the biggest technical challenge Corey faced at Fremont and how did he overcome it?
A crooked right-front wheel caused steering and handling issues; after diagnosing the problem, the team corrected the bind and adjusted the setup to win the feature.
Ohio Valley Late Model Series Racer Corey DeLancey
Q: How does Corey view the steel-block Late Model compared to open motors and crate engines?
He explained that steel blocks are not necessarily cheaper long-term, but can be cost-effective in certain aspects; the key is staying competitive against top teams, and the choice depends on track conditions and available funding.
