What To Expect Thursday at Eldora
Thursday is the first of two preliminary nights for the 32nd Dirt Late Model Dream at Eldora Speedway. Drivers have been split into two preliminary groups, with one group racing Thursday and one group racing Friday.
Thursday night's roster includes the likes of Bobby Pierce, Hudson O'Neal, Ricky Thornton Jr., Tyler Erb, Chris Ferguson and Carson Hocevar. The complete roster can be viewed below.
Each preliminary night feature will be 50 laps and pay $30,000 to win.
Similar to years past, Eldora's "Every Lap Matters" point system will reward points to drivers based on their performance during qualifying, heat races, consolation races and the preliminary night feature. Those points will be used to help set the lineup for Saturday's Dirt Late Model Dream heat races.
