We dont have to worry about rain at Dallas....the great Dust Bowl is always there along with the rocks. I am sure Patsy will have a picture of it.

Positive: no one is getting stuck in the mud!

This is my home track, sinuses will be messed up from the dust!

good luck to you guys in Class.

Thought news said they had a bunch of flooding in the Dallas area, fake news?

We started parking about 7:20 this morning! As Austin said, there are lots of rocks and dust! But if it rains on Sat and Sun like it is calling for, we won’t get stuck!! We have not been here since the Super Collider fiasco some 20 years ago! It doesn’t look like much has changed except where there was grass it is now rock! Also found some sand spurs and little bitty sharp rocks that stuck in my shoes! I sure hope those rocks don’t find their way into the race car tires!

We start out with Stock at 9 in the morning with Q1, then Class!!

We went to Babe’s Chicken in Cedar Hill tonight and boy was it good!! It was about 30 minutes from the track but well worth the drive. Thanks everyone for recommending it!!
