Traction was a joke, both lanes.
I know how to race!

Who's your daddy?

  • 298 dollars in gas
  • 60 dollars in race gas
  • 60 dollars for camping
  • 125 dollars for food
  • 50 dollars entry fee
  • Red lighting first round in both the gamblers race and Warrior bracket priceless!

I would suggest a losers gambler race to be held after second round is complete with buy backs. Track rental for the whole day so time is not an issue. It is a long trip for some people and to go out first round and then load up stinks. What about grudge match racing both people give 10 bucks and the winner gets his money back plus the other guys money it mite be fun! Just an idea!

That is why it is called "racing" and not "winning"

Nice job OLD GOAT!

Very nice car too!

I agree about the track everyone seemed to move to the left after leaving the line. My car felt like it was moving all over the place down the track very hard to keep in the grove and that is not normal for my car.

Nice job Old Goat! I didn't attend but had some friends that were there. Traction was indeed a joke.
