Evidently Division 7 or this race track in particular just doesn't care! They also changed the order that we were running from the time it was announced and changed it to where stock almost ran back to back with only super stock in between. If you run both stock and super stock, it was really a busy hour and a half, and then nothing til last thing tonight.


Well I am about ready for a nap, so I can stay up long enough to race tonight.
My son and I were at the track Saturday at 815 am, and they certainly welcomed us at that time. We saw some of the Stockers make passes on that round. I assume this family parked in the lot to the west of the pit entrance. We were the 8th car from the gate, so not many spectators made it there much earlier. The ticket booth was already open and selling tickets at this time, so I do not know what this families problem was...

We used the free Saturday tickets (TAD driver) Duane Shields was giving out at his Short Line Express convenience stores, that are located throughout Las Vegas.

I took lots of photos, and will start posting those tonight after work. I did not have internet and computer access in Vegas, like I do at home in South Dakota.
