If the weather doesn't make Ray cancel, I'll be making my 1 1/2 hour trip up to take my ol' man to the race. I'll be checking their FB page around lunch and before I head out.

If you have never been, I recommend you go once.. It's not the fanciest facility out there, but if you want a fan experience you can't get most other places this is it. The feeling of having 24 - 850 hp supers at your feet is a wicked feeling. The grandstands starts about 5-6' of the embankment down to the track and it is an adrenaline rush when they fire off of turn 4 and blow past you before they dive / fall into turn one..

The track is always racy. It always starts our as bottom dominate and then around lap 30-40 the top comes in and it makes for some wild hammer down finishes. It's a big motor track, so the ground will be pounding.

Try this video to see some of what I mean.. you may have to cut and paste it into your address bar..

How can you saying boring ? Every race has it own excitement.

84wedge really ragging today. First, he rips up Ben Shelton. Next, he calls last night's racing boring.

Wedge, anything in racing make you happy? Rest of us don't rag on the announcers or call a race where the top 5 are all on the same straightaway boring. Take some good mood meds today.
