Hey Joe......

Does anyone remember how we got to this point?
Let's go back 25 years.......
Race was on sunday only (with a sunday morning time trial).
Saturday was a time trial day (for those that could make it on saturday).
Then...... somewhere in the late 80's (i'm guessing), some track decided to have a test and tune (and parking ) on friday.
That turned into a three day points meet shortly after.

I hate racing on fridays too..... but I do like getting home for church on sunday!

Ed, I think the last pair of cars went down the track at about 2:15 a.m. Sunday morning at Ennis. It was cool and windy so the dew wasn't a big problem, but once summer comes those late night finishes could get very dangerous. I like the Friday-Saturday deal, when I can get off work on Fridays! It would stink for a guy who has to work on Friday and needs those extra runs to get his stuff sorted out. But hey, don't worry when it's a Sat.-Sun. race they will only charge you extra for test and tune of Fri.
