We are so looking forward to seeing you all and having a great time at the races! For those of you who have raced with us before this should all look pretty familiar.
The format below is the same as we have used in past years with one minor tweak, last year many of you requested a 4 car invert instead of 6 in the heat races and we have made that change! If you have any questions about the weekend don't hesitate to call and if you haven't gotten me your intro song yet please do so ASAP so we can get everything ready as well!
See you all in just a few short days!!
