New and more seating and they are also adding more lanes for the cars. Thanks go out to the Tedesco's for providing a great place for us to race. The link provided has lots of pictures of some of the work going on. http://www.flickr.com/photos/pghracewaypark/6806891577/in/set-72157628483222501/ 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27 Livin and lovin life one day at a time

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I am glad to hear about the staging lanes upgrade, that was a bottle neck. 1993 Daytona, 5.50 at 130mph (1/8) 1.19 sixty ft (PG). Link to 572 B1 - Part 1
