Re: 2001 Class Nationals info...
And thanks to each and everyone who worked that event! Redman kept the bite there all weekend in that heat and sandy soil! Convinced me that no bite because its too hot is BS. Nitro busted his butt for at least 4 days. I remember water in the motor home was so warm in the tanks that a cold shower in the shower room at the track was best. It was HOT but GREAT! Holmes over Terrance in the index race if I remember correct. Also, some things that come to mind: Alex and Nitro were at the gate and thanked us for coming, Terry Bell was in the heat a day early teaching cars at trailers to get a head start and keep down the lines in tech the next day and also introduced himself and thanked us again for coming, Alex was at the gate late Sunday and as I was leaving thanked me again for attending. Was a great time and an extremely well run event considering it was the first. Also being amazed at Adger Smith, who was still recovering from a bad accident, was everywhere, doing it all! Spectators were much more than expected and added to the excitement of the whole event! S/SS was the main attraction so I guess we are marketable after all. Contingency sponsors stepped up and participated and offered great incentives (without 3-5 yr.limits on product) Which is total BS in my opinion. One of the best run, most fun events I have been to in recent years.
