SGMP was a mess this weekend as the owner just sold out and the new guys are not in yet. Really nothing new. The timing system has been acting up for how many years now. Hopefully the new owners want us and have a better attitude. Orlando's conditions overall are not much better and if we didn't need to go their we probably wouldn't.

Bristol and Charlotte both feel points meets don't generate the $$ to cover the expense although Cody is trying to arrange a double or something to get us there.

Would be nice to have a double in Bristol or Charlotte.

I'm watching the Div#2 race on NHRA.tv and watching the track prep and I don't see a spray buggy going down the track with glue. I know there has been some rain of and on down there this weekend. Some the classes require more track prep than others like Top sports man/Top Dragster and comp. One would think the NHRA and Track owners would meet in the middle on a good track surface.
