That's pretty phenomenal. 9. myothercarisanM535i posted: 03.04.2012 - 5:08 pm Rate this comment: (2) (0) "Probably cause the race was only 50 miles and took less then an Hour.

He has phenomenal talent but no luck at ride-finding. 12. 10andJoe posted: 03.04.2012 - 7:12 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) "50 laps? Why even bother?" Because series at lower levels run shorter races than the Big Three do? 13.

In good equipment these are David Mayhews stats in NASCAR 3rd,Pole,21 Laps Led - Trucks 3rd - Trucks 10th 4 laps led -nationwide He'll find a ride eventually. It's stupid to say he won't. It might just take a few years. 15. TaterRacing posted: 03.05.2012 - 7:34 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) "Because series at lower levels run shorter races than the Big Three do?" They usually do 100 or 150 laps for the West Series here. They do 125 laps at Loudon for the East Series as well as 150 at Dover, all one-mile tracks. It seems rather pointless to have just a 50 lapper. It's kind of insulting to the fans of the series. 16.

I suppose it's Phoenix... 17. Spen posted: 04.12.2012 - 11:41 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Had to miss the broadcast due to work. Anyone know now why they were running so slow? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
