place looked empty to me. they may never have it again LOL.
I talked to Pete, he is hopefull another MapleGrove type Pontiac race may be in the future. To paraphrase him, so i do not misquote him, "we have remained steady or increased each year since 2007, even in the poor economy. they can't ignore Pontiac anymore. changes are happening at Maple Grove and Division one"

Hey thanks George, really. I think I am going to have to go to one.
Too many awesome cars to pick. I like the old school J2000, iron heads and a T2. What did it run ?
