Glad to hear they will have S/SS next year and thanks again for making it happen this past year! I wish I could have made it to the banquet!

It's too bad they put three of the six races for 2012 on some of our closest divisional and national events!

1/8TH MILE OR 1/4TH MILE? Rumors say could be 1/8th

Why run 1/8 mile on a National Event facility? Last race same weekend as Earlville may not be the best plan.

I think 1/8 mile would be fun, and it would be a lot easier on the track for maintenance without having the last half of the track to take care of. And it would be a faster run program. With the cost of preparing the track and the labor involved to do it I think it would help the track's bottom line.
