Dirtcar UMP Championship at Charlotte Dirt Track

[Lennylinda]

Just saw that Kenny Schrader is racing there. I did not know about this race. Go to Charlotte Speedway website and there is no mention. Does anyone have info. What drivers will be there.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

They just added this not to long ago. I has nothing to do with woo's. There are a bunch more classes. I think its posted on another thread here. They are having seca lm, 4cyls,310 sprints and a bunch of other classes.

World Racing Group is putting it on from what I've heard under the DirtCar banner.

Guessing it's a similar deal to how the World Finals started, WRG rents the track and puts on the event, if it's successful, Charlotte will start putting it on and pay the sanction fees...

Pulled this off the other thread where i asked the same question

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Ok i was told it had nothing to do w woo. My bad

[jlacey]

Thats what I was told also. That and the track itself didn't have much to do with it either.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

I believe thats a 3 day show then the following finals is 3 day show. They were advertizing it as a 2 wk show. I guess 6days is 2 wks to them

[jlacey]

Yeah i think your right. Was gonna try to make both shows but dont think ill make it this weekend. Definitely coming down next week. Hopefully they do it again this year, last year was my 1st time so i dont know if it was done the years before. The Carolina Ale House on Thursday night is the place to be. Got to meet and hang out with drivers, crew even the guys running the souvenir trailers and had a blast. Not sure if it was MAV or a local station but they were broadcasting live interviewing drivers. Anyone going i definitely recommend stopping by if theyre doing it again this year

jlacey, I'm assuming you mean after the races are over Thursday that is the place to be? If I'm flying all the way out there I'll be at the racetrack even though its just qualifying and I think heats for the mods. But I'm a weirdo and enjoy qualifying lol.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Oct 21,22,23 is the good guys hot rod show inside chrlt motor spdwy.

Actually i think its Wednesday night, i forgot qualifying was Thursday night. Was thinking it was Friday but you saying that reminded me. Im with you i like to watch practice, qualifying and everything. Some cars might be new to me and watching time trials and having the announcer talk about just the 1 or 2 guys on the track helps to find out who they are and where their from

[zach51]

Absolutely, I enjoy getting to watch each car individually, see what it's doing, drivers hitting different marks, etc. When you get 10 or more cars out on the track there is so much going on its hard to actually lock in on 1 car and watch its behavior. I always enjoyed single car qualifying but I can see what some/most people don't.

[jlacey]

Yeah that always annoyed me. Unless i go to a track near home theres always a handful of drivers ove never seen before and the announcer doesnt talk about them until they go green and you cant hear. Especially with the sprints and mods as much as some of those guys swap rides. I like single car tts for that reason but understand the multi car tts for time reasons

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Cherokee is having there blue gray 100 paying $10k on sunday oct 23. For all that want to know whats going on in case they want to add that to there trip.
Its only an hr south right off 85 exit 96. Strait shot from concord.

[jlacey]

Good call. Im hoping it doesnt get rained out again, would like to get to Cherokee again this year

[jlacey]

Hope to run into some of you guys there. Hopefully they park the Budweiser trailer by the pitside grandstands again. Most of our time (and $) will be spent there again

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

SS in an earlier post you said the Blue Grey was on October 30th (after the World Finals), it is actually this Sunday the 23rd. I started looking into changing my flight and I was like wait a second...lol

[zach51]

jlacey last year during the rain delay I spent most of MY time and money at the Carolina Lottery scratch-off trailer. I think I ended up with about 5 shirts and bags and whatever they were giving out for spinning that wheel, all of which I gave away. I spent probably $80 on those tickets and think I only won like $5. I hope they leave that trailer at home this year!

Thanks for the info tsand

Looks like a mess w traffic w all the events going on at both tracks.

[zach51]

Sounds like a National 100 type of scenario at Charlotte this weekend. That National 100 is a spectacle, the super late models are just a bonus.

[jlacey]

We managed to avoid the lottery table somehow. We stayed in the pits or the pitside grandstands most of the time. Wed walk around the front to the souvenir trailers and simulators every once in a while. Once the racing started we stayed in the stands or the budweiser trailer

[dirtdobber45]

Your a fkn keyboard racer!And your a sh!thead...lmao
