Watch all Friday and Saturday, drive back to Michigan Sunday. Cant wait, wanted to go to this for a while It's a great place to watch a race, and the surface is awesome! One note however, last time I was there, they don't take plastic for concessions, nor is there an ATM on site. Make sure you have cash. It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.

I guess not too bad because an hour ago they said they were going to run in two classes to get as much test hits as possible. Said they will make one easy pass to make sure it goes straight. 68 Barracuda Formula S 340

He said they only had to replace 1 bar somewhere in the car. Car has a for sale sign on it. Will be interesting to see where Tim ends up this weekend. Last edited by EvilB1Dart; 02/26/21 04:49 AM.
