Default Re: good job homer and brandon

I can tell you this, I have a guy who name is Johnny Seay and he is the best when it comes to taking care of the race track. Johnny and myself talked late Saturday to get a gameplan for Sunday. We have figured a few things out to get a cold racetrack to work as well as a 130 degree track. I will say that the track operators to the best working tracks out there have been very open about what makes their track work. The funny thing is what works at one place doesnt work at others due to humidity, direct sunlight etc. In a perfect world we could have a 65 degree day with direct sun on the track and a 5 mph tailwind, oh wait a 30 mph tail wind for just one session. Johnny spends about 20 hours a week on the track and every decision is made we keep up with weather conditions, track temp etc. We had a 2 hour rain delay, a jr crash, a car break an axle, 150 cars and finished in 6 hours with one class getting 3 time runs. My crew is the best in drag racing with Kevin Shipmon as race director, Jimmy Roundtree in the lanes and Sis Williams on the computer. I hope to see you guys there and even my brother rode the tractor for 3 hours Sunday running the blower.

we burnt 35 gallons of gas/diesel Sunday in the tractors, blowers etc.
