Better hope the modifieds have alot of spare axle parts with them 3 out of 4 dodges broke front axles and the forth one had a problem getting turbo to spool and small fire under the hood. So will be intresting to see if any are back up and running tommorrow. Didnt get to stick around for other class of diesel trucks but the modifieds def had a rough go on that red clay. Winning pull on them made it 230 something before his front axle let go. Other 2 barely made it off the line before carnage got them.

Wow,

I think with a little rain to moisten the track, it might be better if it doesn't get rained out all together.

You get any video?

Nah sorry didnt get any video, Robert Miller was there and 2 women drivers think one was another one of roberts trucks. Not sure who all else. Looked to be shearing front hubs off not sure though. Just know they all looked similar wouldnt make it very far then front end would make a loud pop and front end on one side would drop. THen when they would pick it up with wrecker the front tire was picked up and put in back of truck or loader bucket. There were only 4 trucks in the modified class. One had problem getting turbo to spool and looked like small fire under hood on left side so he didnt make a pull and the other 3 broke the front ends.
