I agree Landon with your observations about the beating and banging. This was at one time a clean racing series. I used to go to Charlotte watching the Legends race on a regular basis. I wouldn't go again with the racing this rough. If this is what is allowed now I'll save my money. Rubbing is racing; beating and banging is a demolition derby. Seems like lots of motorsports has eroded to this level. See ya in Hickory!

Dude that’s how the shootout has become. I was racing down there for the legends million. It’s a shitshow with big money and a lot of spoiled kids who don’t have to pay for their shit when they wreck it. I went to the million with one car and a back up motor. We obviously didn’t make it but it’s crazy the amount of money people spend on legends cars now.

You definitely summed it up perfectly, with regards to the individual running you over for last place. Of course, my perspective is that these younger drivers have spent far to much time in the virtual world. Such as iracing, call of duty, and others. They cannot real world consequences from their actions. Moreover, there is no shortcut or easy way to gain real world experience. Other than in the real world. Of actually dealing with real people in real time...

What a very cool idea to make a short track out of this big Charlotte Motor Speedway. I think a lot of the big Nascar tracks are doing this now such as Charlotte obviously & Indianapolis,Daytona, in which Daytona has been doing for many years with the 24hrs race Etc. I can’t think of anymore big tracks that have a road course as well off the top of my head right now …

Hey Landon. This might be a topic you’ve covered in another video I missed or haven’t watched yet, but I’d love to learn more about your experience in the truck series and maybe why you haven’t gotten more cracks at it. It seems like every time you hopped in the truck you were competitive, especially considering the lack of seat time in those things you’ve had. You got your personal best finish and then never got in the truck again? Doesn’t seem right to me. Maybe a video idea or a Q&A kinda thing idk, either way loving the content and pulling for you!

Problem with legends is that you got kids who have run karts for 8 years and they are taught that they need to run over people to pass them….fast forward to them getting out into legend cars…same mindset because the way they’ve raced since they started is to run over people to push them up and out of the racing line to make a pass….I blame karting lol

I ran a Legend car some back in the mid 1990s, and it was the same way then. People driving way over their head and beating your car up. Legend cars are fragile, especially the front suspension and steering components, and I got tired of it and sold my car and helped my friends Micky and Scott Lawson with theirs. I always thought they were a good learning car because they were so light on the rear and would spin the tires off the turns so easily making you have good throttle control, you basically steered them off the corners with the throttle.

Love your videos man! It’s so cool to watch the in-car and see your emotions right after a race. Not sure if anyone else does what you do but that leads me to a serious question. On a lot of your videos we see lots of racing and I’ve been wondering if Floracing or anyone else had any issues that you do this. Like copyrights and all that. We watch your in-car and see a lot of laps from the stands, which I don’t know if you have someone up there or if it’s the actual broadcast. Either way, I love it but hope they don’t have any “legal” concerns for what you do.

Loved the video, always do. I've always had an issue with the point that you were making. A lot of these kids can drive but very few know how to race. I know you understand the difference in the two. It's why I don't agree with 12/13 year Olds running LMSC. It's why I don't believe an 18/19 has any business near an Xfinity/Cup car. You still need to learn etiquette, the importance of give/take, why you shouldn't plow over someone for 15th. All this comes with experience. Sorry if that doesn't make sense but it sounded right in my head lol.

People going balls to the walls for nothing when they have nothing to win, I’ve learned that quite a bit this year at my local track (New London-Waterford Speedbowl) when people from the back who start there that are fast try to make things stick within a lap or two and it causes chaos. They are fun to drive but man some people don’t think about the money involved in it.
