yes sir, I have, actually on vacation in that area for the next 5 days. I still think there is something to it when you can only sell 1000 tix in the first place, and they are still available the day before the race.
Dude. Put the crack pipe down.Quote:

You can't really talk.Quote:

On a good day.

Im not disagreeing w you but it sucks that the weather didnt turn out how it was posted on my weather info and it turned out to b a nice day out. The 1000 tix were for online sales and some were for gate sales. Ik they have restrictions there and fred prolly wants to play by the rules so to speak. Just wish this race would have happened oh well. Hope u enjoy ur vacation nc mudcatQuote:

Play it safe, and drown out the “track operators”.
Great points all around. It’s tough.
Wythe is awesome, have watched a couple of haulers wrecked going in or out (and was a passenger in one when it happened!). Hendren junked both truck and trailer on a beautiful sunny day, water truck had just made a pass and once the trailer started to slide it was done for. BBQ, you have to get there. Make it to Charlotte and I will haul you the remainder of the trip...
Hate to see a hauler torn up like thatQuote:
