It will be quite interesting to see how things will go without the sportsman. If you think about it, there may be big gaps between track action towards the end of the program. I wonder if they are trying to work up some other type of entertainment?

Amish strippers!!...thanks for a good belly laugh...I'm still chuckling

You gotta wonder about building a real low end COMP car, preferred parking, better treatment, and haul the SS along....bingo bongo, no getting in line 2 weeks early, same zip code parking, factor in sitting around the holding lots, eating, time away from work...it may be a push

Not to mention the event staff...all the National Event workers will be clearing out. So now its up to the D1 people to cover the reschedule. Yeah I got the "urgent help needed" email this morning.

Dang guys, the whole situation is a pretty tough pill to swallow...seems like the odds have been against that track alot since '98. I hope everyone gets back safe.

This seems to have disappeared from an earlier post....Gee....I wonder how that happened !
Its a good idea if you can afford the extra car and the extra entry fee and insurance fee for the fuel cars just to get a better parking spot. Maybe bring a T/S car and claim it as a pro stock car....LOL.
