Gainsville Turkey Trot's ??????

[Chad Rhodes]

Sorry to hear that Casey, I was wondering what had happened. There were a lot of no shows first round, some expected (tear downs) some not. I was very disappointed with the turnout.

Congrats to Jeff Adkinson for the win and Don Himes on his runnerup in the combo Might have been a low car count but it was still good racing. Also a big thanks to Keith Fulp for his hands on with the tether situation

It was a good race. The track personnel did a great job with the starting line. Traction was good all weekend. There were at least 5 cars that were there for records and did not participate in the Sunday race. I was surprised that there weren't more of our Southern Stock Super Stock regulars there.
I think the main problem was the small purse for a combo eliminator race. No one is going to travel very far for a $1000 to win pay out. I got down to 4 cars and only got $50. Pretty sorry.
Congrats to Jeff on another fine win.
John Duzsak and Brian Oaks put on a good show with the wheels up launches

Maybe they're not complaining

[Ed Wright]

I wasn't aware they paid that little.
Chad, how much did your car pick up in that air? I have never gone down the track in that kind of air.

Ed

On Saturday I went 10.22 and 10.25 on my 2 time runs. Sunday the air was much better and with out changing anything on my car I went 10.14 on the brakes against Jeff Atkinson in the semi's. There was also a pretty good head wind that I figured at .03 so it was probably .10 to .12 quicker. Had the wind been at our back it would have been mine shaft.
