It was all about the racer and nothing else. In fact if you total up the money taken in by Rob and the money paid back to the racer, IT DOES NOT BALANCE, He paid us out MORE money than he took in ..... Find a race that would do that.
COUNT ME IN for 2013..... CLASS ACT race by, CLASS ACT people!
AWESOME ....
If you did not attend (sucks for you) maybe you can figure it out next year what races are important to attend! This is at the top of my list.

Well as most of you know I don't race very often. I attend almost all of them but drive a few times a yr. And I have to say that this was the most fun I've had at a race in quite some time. I've never been to a race where it's all about you and not Alkajunk. There was never any rush to get to the lanes, or to start running. A round was never started until all the cars where present and they gave us plenty of time between rounds to get cooled down and what ever else you needed to do. My hat goes off to Rob and the Dimino Family for working together through 2 schedule changes to get this thing off and running. It was great. Also, when is the last time anyone went to an event and was able to have a 100% FREE TEST AND TUNE the day before the event. AND not to mention a chance to race later that night for a small entry fee and have all the money go back to the racers. Oh yeah and we still got a time shot before eliminations. That is what this race is all about, the RACERS. We all have heard at one time or another someone saying "this sucks, I wasted a day of work to get 1 time run" or " great we got bumped again what else is new". If you took a day off work Friday you could have literally made 20 runs if you wanted to without paying a dime!. The payout that was given was way more than i expected it to be for the amount of cars there were. Which was a nice surprise considering other events barely pay when theres a full field.Even though there weren't many cars, the fact that cars were able to run in 2 classes helped the car count and im glad people did it. Who cares if they dont make weight, we are all shooting for the same dial anyway. I'm all for anything to raise the car count in order to raise the purse. And in case anyone was wondering there were no SG cars in the late Rounds of SST if that makes you feel any better. Anyway Rob and Diminos thanks again for a great race and for all your time and effort that was put into it. I'm sure it had some hiccups but I didnt see any. If you were unable to make it or were supposed to make it and didnt you missed a great time, great track, great people and great payouts. Can't wait til 2013!!!!!!! Rob you'll have my check probably by Wednesday lol. Thanks again
