What a feat. Congrats to webmaster and to everybody involved with this site." And what a race for it to be too, tying an all-time wins record for a series. Top 5 for Kyle Weatherman, top 10s for Blake Hillard, Kyle Benjamin, and Milka Duno. Darrell Basham of all drivers missed a top 10 by 1 spot, great run for him in 11th. Also funny that his Chevrolet was sponsored by a Dodge dealership. A few races ago at Elko I posted that James Hylton's 19th in that race might be his final top 20 in his historic career, glad I was wrong. At least one more for the ageless wonder, 19th after pulling in the garage a 22 laps in. Unfortunately because of the spotty tv package ARCA gets, running the distance has no real incentive at races like this for any driver not in the championship hunt. Sponsors get no exposure and many don't bother to support the smaller teams for these races, and just like any other ARCA race, 6-7 drivers have a realistic shot of actually earning a top 10, the rest just back into it by not screwing up 6.

Mingus had taken the lead and was pulling away quickly from Kimmel. It sounds like the wreck started when Cody Lane and Milka Duno got together just ahead of Mingus. Brad Lloyd, Roger Carter III, James Swanson all were involved and Mingus had nowhere to go and got collected. Lloyd and Swanson's cars both suffered heavy damage. Lloyd and Lane were either on the lead lap or a lap down when the wreck occurred. The wreck took both of them out of sure top 10 finishes and Mingus out of a possible win. 10.

He got the lions share of his wins when ARCA had big car counts and plenty of competition. A win is a win but this won came with a weak field that was as bad or worse than the draw ARCA had in the '70s and early '80s. How pathetic ARCA has become when you can be 11 laps down and be in the top 10. I realize the CUP race at KY Speedway was postponed until today due to the weather but why would ARCA schedule a race on the same weekend when less than 100 miles down the road NASCAR is running their top 3 series? ARCA and Winchester Speedway surely could have come up with a better weekend. 13.

Then I looked closer and saw she has yet to finish within two laps of the race winner. ARCA must really be having a lot of trouble with their fields this season, and while that may be because of not having a good TV contract, it also causes the series to not be able to get a good contract. I hope the series can do something to turn things around as ARCA racing was very competitive not too long ago. Perhaps they can try to attract some of the old guys from Cup racing like the Truck series has done in recent years. They'll also need to do something about cars, because they're running out of old Gen-4 Cup cars. I just really hope they do something because I don't want to see this great series go away. 18.

I just really hope they do something because I don't want to see this great series go away. As I recall, a couple of years back they tweaked the ARCA rules to make ex-Nationwide cars legal (i.e. allowing the 105" wheelbase cars in addition to the Cup-standard 110" ones). The thing is, /those/ cars are running out now that that series has had its CoT around for a few years... 20.

Jeff posted: 06.30.2013 - 10:51 pm Rate this comment: (3) (0) Scheduling this race on a Cup weekend isn't really the problem; if anything, if the Cup race went off as scheduled, live TV would have been a bonus (as Rex Robbins once said, there was no competition between Cup and ASA, but if the Cup guys weren't on TV, ASA would clean up). The weak field is a sign of the times. It's evident in all the touring divisions; K&N West has small fields, K&N East has had a few, the Modifieds don't turn out the numbers they once did. The purses don't pay out enough to keep the teams afloat. Norm Benning makes more running at the back of the Truck field than Kimmel probably earned winning this race. Sponsorship becomes critical, but selling sponsorship is hard without TV exposure. Martin Truex, Sr. once claimed that getting a $3 million deal to run the Busch Series (late '90s) was easier than getting $400,000 to fund his Busch North team for a year, because of the exposure. I find it amusing that two of Frank Kimmel's last major sponsors have been series sponsors - Pork and Menards. It'd be like Jimmie Johnson being sponsored by Sunoco. That said, Kimmel is one of the few journeyman racers making a legitimate career in ARCA. Now, to be fair, ARCA is a transition series; guys stop here, win a few races, and move up the ladder. But 10, 15 years ago, we saw weekly entries by stalwarts like Mark Gibson, Joe Cooksey, Bob Strait, Cavin Councilor, Curt Piercy...drivers who ran every race, or every race they could, week in and week out. These days, Kimmel seems like the only guarantee from year to year, at least in terms of competitive entries. (Basham keeps trying, God bless him, but his adventure is more a war of attrition.) The rest of the full-time talent pool? Whoever buys the full-time rides in Venturini's cars, whoever gets a ride in a Cunningham car, and whoever runs the Roulos' car. There are regular contenders - Tom Hessert has had a ride for a few years now, and Chris Buescher ran a few seasons for Gary Roulo - but most of them are only in the series as long as the money doesn't run out. See Steve Arpin and Brennan Poole. A couple years ago we had Patrick Sheltra win the title, then disappear the following year as he switched to developing Milka Duno. Last year, Allgaier Motorsports, Empire Racing and Ken Schrader Racing cut their schedules back, and Andy Belmont Racing went up for sale. This year, we've already seen Grant Enfinger and BCR bow out of a title run after starting the season with a win. Bo Lemastus started the year with a fleet of cars and has only made attempts in half the races. Spencer Gallagher is out with an injury. Now Josh Williams, another full-timer, is cobbling together a schedule between his own equipment and whatever team needs a driver to take the green flag. And the development driver efforts, hampered partly by driver youth and funding, seem to focus more on winning a few races and moving on, leaving the championship to the few drivers who start all the events. It makes you wonder how secure Kimmel's title chase would be if he had more than three or four serious challengers, if Kyle Benjamin and Brennan Poole and Kyle Weatherman and Chase Elliott were racing for the ARCA championship instead of just running a few races. In a way, it diminishes the importance of a title. Basically, there are five full-time drivers with a prayer of winning the championship, and only one is within 300 points of Kimmel. I suppose it's shades of when Tim Steele won championships by 1000 points over his nearest competition, but the last 10 years have been far more competitive than that...heck, in 2008, five drivers went into the season finale with a mathematical chance of winning it all. The dwindling equipment pool is a problem, too, but there are cars out there to be fixed up. A move to the COT chassis would probably kill the series outright; a guy like Darrell Basham or Wayne Peterson is more likely to close shop than to obsolete his entire fleet (yeah, both cars) and buy a new car or two. And even then, they're still a generation of body parts behind. TLDR: It's not the race weekend, it's the weak economy, a lack of sponsors, and a new focus on bringing drivers up without making a career of the series along the way. 23.

The fields were small all weekend, ARCA had 23 cars, the ARCA / CRA Super Series had 17 cars show up, and the ARCA Truck Series had 12. Rick Benjamin & Jim Tretow will be doing the commentary for the NBC Sports broadcasts. I saw both at the track today. They have no pit reporter, which I find interesting.

(Other NASCAR divisions, ASA,etc) I know Formula Two's most recent incarnation is in the pipeline ( ;) ), but adding series is apparently a lot of coding work. I'm currently working on compiling the results for the Southern Super Series - an ASA-like series that kicked off this year in the Southeast - and have run into the headache that even now, lots of series only list "position, driver, hometown" in their official results - not even the /make of car/ in some cases. (Speed51's Trackside Live is a lifesaver in this case as they're doing them for all the SSS races this year.) I suppose it's true though that for a lot of series+season combos all that can be gotten is position+driver (but that is of course the most important thint!) ...also that reminds me I have more Snowball Derby results to send in... 28. 83andJoe posted: 07.01.2013 - 12:28 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) But anyway, yeah, as for ARCA, switching to Gen-5 cars would kill the series; even switching to used models of the current Nationwide cars would.

Jeff posted: 07.01.2013 - 2:42 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) 83andJoe, the current K&N cars are based off the same platform as the Gen-4 105/110" wheelbase. (Winston West was 110" and Busch North was 105", but they opened the rules to allow both when they merged the division.) They did flirt with the idea of a composite spec body that teams could buy, then cut out the grill and window openings to match their manufacturer of choice. The composite body got some traction on the west coast, but on the east coast teams stuck to buying cutoff bodies from Busch/Nationwide teams. (Plus, it was a convenient place for Cup teams to dump their outdated cars when some of them had development deals going.) The USAR ProCup did do something similar; those cars used to be very similar to NASCAR 105" fabricated body/chassis rules, but they use a late-model style body these days and I believe the chassis may have changed too. When and how exact that is, I can't confirm. It was my understanding that back to the '80s-early '90s, ARCA teams had the option of running a more traditional late-model/pro-stock chassis at the shorter tracks, with the goal of allowing weekly competitors a chance to race when ARCA came to town. (This was a line from an old article somewhere; it may not be entirely accurate.) Since I've been following racing, ARCA's been running 110" wheelbase cars off the used-Cup-car lot. I just can't see them outdating the entire running stock of the series...and yet, somehow ProCup did exactly that, right? Then again, last I saw, they're pulling 10-12 cars a week. 34. 83andJoe posted: 07.01.2013 - 3:07 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Well, I think that was becaue ProCup HAD to. Last year, they averaged 11.2 cars per race - at that point you have to do or die (so far this year, 13.4 average a race, not much improvement but /some/). ARCA hasn't hit the desperation point yet. 35. CBASS posted: 07.01.2013 - 6:53 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Not the best weekend for Carter 2, as both cars got caught up in the "big one."

Rexrobe posted: 07.01.2013 - 8:46 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) I think one of the reasons for ARCA's decline is NASCAR lowering the age limit for the Truck series. Kids coming up who were under age in NASCAR could gain professional experience in ARCA for a few years, but now the preferred route is to go straight to trucks and work it out there. That has deprived ARCA from a number of cars and drivers. ARCA could make a quick fix by allowing their Super Late Model series cars legal for the national series, at least on the short tracks. I don't know much about race car bodies, but would it be possible for an ARCA team to buy a new Cup or Nationwide car, cut the sheet metal off from the front wheels forward, and put on a "traditional" nose? I know the rules don't allow for that yet, but that would seem to be a way to use ex-NASCAR chassis without driving out the little teams. 37. Rexrobe posted: 07.01.2013 - 8:47 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) New in my last post meaning new to them, of course. ;) 38. 83andJoe posted: 07.01.2013 - 9:13 pm Rate this comment: (1) (1) Rexrobe: The entire Gen-5 Cup/Nationwide CoT cars are wholly and completely different from the Gen-4/old Nationwide cars. The driver's compartment is bigger on the Gen-5, and that's just for starters. You could buy used /chassis/ from those cars I suppose, but you'd have to entirely rebody them - in which case you'd be right back at square one. As for the age issue causing problems, well, let's check for that. We'll exclude Daytona and Talladega as special cases, and look at two numbers: field size, and number of cars that start-and-park. This year, over the first eight non-restrictor plate races, the average number of S&Ps is 5.75. Last year over the same time period, the number was...5.75. Field size, however, tells a tale of woe: last year, over the first eight non-restrictor-plate races, an average of 33.13 cars started per race; this year, the number is 27.75. (And last year both Daytona and Talladega started 43 cars, while this year, they were 40 and 36.) So while we have the same number of "field fillers" per race, we're having smaller fields, so the % of S&Pers is up; and this doesn't count the cars that chug on to the finish (or until they get wadded up...) getting passed by the leaders every five laps. The age restriction relaxation by NASCAR may have some effect (one wonders if Chase Elliott would be running full-time in ARCA this year without it), but I honestly think it's the dwindling equipment pool (therfore making new cars cost more) that's causing bigger problems. And I'm not sure you could run the Midwest Tour cars alongside the "big" cars, as that would be akin to, in the 1990s, running a combination ASA-Busch race. 39. Rexrobe posted: 07.01.2013 - 10:12 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) *sigh* I wasn't blaming the whole of ARCA's problem on the age rule, but a contributing factor. There is no one thing that is a magic fix, but a combination of factors of which the age restriction is one. I already acknowledged that the rules would have to be changed to allow the new NASCAR cars. I was asking that IF those cars were allowed, keeping the rest of the new bodywork the same from the front wheels back: would it be possible to put the current, traditional ARCA/short track nose bodywork on; or do the new chassis preclude that style of bodywork? Also, the ARCA/CRA SuperSeries pole time for Winchester last year was three tenths faster than the ARCA national series. So there's no problem with them running together on short tracks. 40. 83andJoe posted: 07.01.2013 - 10:29 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) >I already acknowledged that the rules would have to be changed to allow the new NASCAR cars.

Unfortunatly, no, you can't, the bodywork is too different - it literally won't line up with the old-style nose. 41. Jeff posted: 07.01.2013 - 10:33 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) A typical short-track car is going to be a completely different animal. Lightweight offset chassis, different engine package, totally different body design. You'd have to somehow handicap that car - adding ballast, perhaps - to level the playing field. As 83andJoe said, the Car of Tomorrow chassis used with the new Cup and Nationwide cars is significantly different from previous chassis, regardless of whether you could mount the same body on it. Some have suggested that certain drivers really took to the new chassis while others have struggled to learn how to make it handle. And it's still different from a Super Late Model chassis. Plus, turning the ARCA Racing Series into another SLM class is going to just create competition against the ARCA's own CRA, PASS, and the other short-track series out there. That isn't the goal of the ARCA Racing Series, any more than the goal of PASS is to start racing superspeedways. 42.
