I hope Ronnie Johnson does show up. I have not seen him race in years.

[44-19-21-39]

Alright, time is drawing near to the Turkey 100. Let's get some names out there for this weekend. Surely we got more than the 15 or 20 that has already been posted on here. I would think 60 cars is not a stretch.

[gflooring]

if they didn't have the tire rule on the race they would have well over 100 entries.you will have to buy 6-8 tires for the weekend and thats 800-1200 dollars just on tires.

You can thank all the tire preppers out there for that.

[latemodel28d]

You can thank all the tire preppers out there for that.

thats pretty much EVERYONE!!

is there a confirmed updated entry list?

[F22 RAPTOR]

Cheaters always claim everyone is, "doing it"... I think its how they cope with their own conflicted conscience. Not everybody cheats, and no, non-cheaters don't always finish last.

[44-19-21-39]

I'm still pondering going friday. May just wait & see how many show up friday to decide if I want to sit in 35 degree weather on saturday. They hyped this race and covered 4m with posts, but it gets close and the information has stopped.

[bullit323]

I would think everybody would like the tire rule, especially the locals who would be racing against some of the bigger teams!!! I mean you still gotta have the same amount of tires to race don't ya? This rule has been in place for a while now, I would think that would make more people wanna race it because they have a better chance at winning against the bigger teams. JMO

[IceCowart]

Spanky Superman and the Flash on a track not none calls theres. Looks like we will see who the man is in a crate car. It may not be any of the big 3. Maybe some new blood takes the money. This has the making of a barn burner. 1 things for shore you have the best of the best in a crate car. So ever who wins this can call himself the king for the year.
