Congratulations to all the winners in Epping.

But, is there any way we can race when it's a tad cooler, like early to mid May,
Sept. & the first part of Oct.
I'm sure that this heat was very unusual & rare because half the country had the heat
as well.
But you have July 4th weekend @ Lebanon.
3 weeks later in July @ New England.
2 weeks later in August @ Atco.
2 weeks later in August @ Cecil County.

That's 4 races in the very hot summer months.

Why couldn't we have 2 points races in May, 1 race in July, 1 race in August & 2 races
in Sept. ???

just my 3 cents.

Whether you race in April,May,June,July,August,Sept or Oct someone always gets to win.
There's probably a different ideal schedule for every S/SS racer in the division.Who's to say one is better than the other?
I missed this race due to lack of funds.I would have been there,just like every other year I've raced Stock,since 1999,excluding 2004,again for lack of funds.
I would have gladly put up with the heat,like I've put up with multiple rain episodes,cold,
pollen attacks (remember Atco last year?).The way things are now,It looks like I'll be
sideligned till 2012,especially after embarrassing myself at Englishtown,the only race I ran this year.
