Here is my setup for tonight!

Goldfish is banned for two weeks to learn to get better at the game and escape out when you are 57 laps down in a 40 lap race.


Wheels car after making hard contact in the rear of Goldfish.

lol... gj goldfish

Would have been better if he woulda took out shock.

eric did the same thing at his first league race.. he went backwards though too .

Eric does that same thing at almost every league race

BTW, Wheel recovered and his tires came to life and he did a slidejob in turn 4 to take the lead only for me to cross under him and beat him to the line by 0.002 seconds in a photo finish!

Hey Shock, I used your set up off here, online in the game browser, worked great.. I went to the fast 10, did like a 1330, not bad for me, lol, anyway, thx... LATE MODELS TO STAGEING.. LATE MODELS TO STAGEING........

That's really not far off the pace of the fast guys anyway.

Check this out everyone!

These UMP Hell Late Models have dynamic tire wear, which is really awesome!!! What that means is that if you are easy on the throttle for a few laps and don't slide as much in the corners, you can really save your tires for a late run. If you wanna see for yourself just do this! Go set the game to 1 lap in a server with The UMP Hell Late Models with damage on simulation (so that you can visually see your tire wear), and run full speed. Tires will be completely gone after that lap. Then do 1 lap again and run half speed or even less, tires will barely turn red at all. I just did it and it worked. So now that makes it even more strategic than before! So now think twice when you are battling hard with someone and wearing down your tires much quicker than waiting back and pouncing on them when their tires fade!

I'll take note of this if the goldfish appears at my races.

He was trying I think, but he needs to learn how to escape out after about the 9th time he gets lapped instead of keep racing.

I'm the best in the world. Btw JFR Jim made a great comeback racing once.

He's raced several times already dummy. Including Midnight Madness

We return next week to what I think is a real UMP Hell Track, and should be an extremely extremely exciting race with these cars at the Highland Speedway in Illinois! I can't wait to see these cars on a tough bullring like that.

GAFFNEY, SC (June 1, 2014)- A full field of drivers came out tonight at the Cherokee Speedway for the Summer Hell Warm Up Series first visit to the southeastern speedplant, in what would become one of the most exciting races in recent Dirt Track Racing memory.

Crossville, Tennessee driver Howard Weaver held off a strong late charge by dirt late model veteran, 19-year old Austen Semmelmann, and Texas driver Dirk Daniels, in what became a thrilling photo finish.

"Yes!" exclaimed Weaver as he climbed out of the car. "Man those guys were comin' fast. With the tire wear on these cars and how hard they are to control towards the end of the races, it just had me nervous as could be like it was my first time racing again.

"I had no clue what tires they were on behind me, and I thought I made a good choice, but theirs obviously held up longer and they were both gaining on me at the end. It was a damn good race for me and I'm glad we were able to hang on at the line. 18 is always strong no matter what chassis we're racing."

Weaver pulled off the win after starting on the pole for the forty lap race, but the A Main was not without some scary moments for several drivers. Rookie Billy Goldfish, from Ashtabula, Ohio, was having a tough time keeping his car on the right path and may have cost second plae finisher Austen Semmelmann a better shot at winning. Semmelmann, the driver of the #18 Mopar Dodge, made hard contact in the rear of Goldfish on lap 26, which slowed him up enough to have to make a last turn slide job to try to win.

"Good job to Weaver, but people like that shouldn't be allowed to race. He was getting lapped every other lap and ruined my chance to win when he just stopped in front of me. We would have won that race by over a second probably, my tires were just starting to come in."
