The track was better when Eddie was manager. After he went pro (PSM) it has been back to slip and slide.

Eddie would be out there spraying bald spots with his bug sprayer to give racers the best track possible on any given Sunday. He would also mix traction compound before spraying to give the dead hook we were looking for. Cars that needed to turn the tire did suffer with his good work though. Pro, Alcohol and Comp cars are looking for wheel speed down low.

Don't know whether it is what is being sprayed, how much or how little is applied or how it is applied, but the track generally s***s in the summer. As soon as the sun looses its power the track tightens up and here we go. But you have to get to that point in the eliminator to risk breaking out.

Atco will give us a great track and you fellas will be on the bumper!
