"Live From" Maple Grove D1 LODRS

Everyone was asking last weekend "Whats up with car counts?" I heard from Chad at Cecil and he said they were below 300 total and it wasn't a good weekend in their books....I joked and said just imagine if you had it in August with the rising fuel costs, he was like you know you might be correct.

I think this weekend will be the true test to see how car counts will be, you'll have your diehards that will be there rain or shine, $2 a gallon or $8 a gallon but, it will be a judge to see where things come out in total car counts. This is normally a 550 to 600 car count event. Also, have to remember this event hasn't been run in over 2 years on this weekend, 2 years ago COVID moved it to the Dutch Weekend in September and we went 1/8 mile racing due to rain and last year was 3 days of rain and they tried to move it to Monday only to have the track not hold rubber and had to be pushed till late August. So we will wait and see what things look like once it's all said and done Sunday Night
