this derby was the biggest joke i have ever seen! They made it so the Dittmers could win the whole show! they let them in with fully plated cars, and let them inspect everyone elses cars and would not let the cars in that they didnt think they could beat! what a joke! Good job cry baby Dittmers!!! Grow some balls boys!

Good job cry baby Dittmers!!! Grow some balls boys! Your post could have been summed up with the sentence "typical north central kansas demo". Been up to that area 3x and every demo ended the same way. Now it just sounds like they just have to decide which last name out of the 3 wins ahead of time............
