East Alabama Motor Speedway - National 100 Weekend Information

[black cadillac]

Hey,thanks for the results Raptor. If you've been to enough races you should know things happen that drags it out that ain't necessarily the track's fault. I always prepare myself for anything so I won't be surprised when it happens. If I'm pushed for time like work or something I have planned I dang sure don't assume when a race is gonna finish up when making a decision. Anyway, I always pick and chose my travel races according to the quality of racing. I live a mile away from GVS and I go to the big races and eat dinner there as well as snacks,souvenirs or any way I can spend money to support the effort to put my 2 cents in for the cause. I guess what I'm asking, is this a track I should visit in the future because I've heard both good and bad.I've been to Atomic,Tazwell,The Gap,Bristol,N.Ga,Seven Flags,TST, Brunswick,Florence(this year) Rome,and Dixie which wasn't that good to me.Do you guys think I should add Phenix to the list? TIA

I know things happen, but when I go to EAMS for the National I know how its gonna be, I expect and look forward to three days of racing from breakfast to bedtime, I love EAMS. It's hard to say what someone else will like, the national 100 is a tradition for me going back to 1986, I've seen good and not so good. I grew up going to Seven Flags, Rome & Dixie, Rome is my favorite of the three, but I've seen good and bad at Dixie too. EAMS isn't typically a door 2 door multi-groove affair, the groove is up high and there are no walls except along the front stretch and around the pits. The main event usually has a lot of tires blow and people going over the bank, which shuffles the lineup. Now if Randle Chupp is running, then your in for a treat, he literally has his own line around the track and its pretty awesome.

I had such a good time at EAMS. I take the time during the track prep break to grill some grub out in the parking lot with all the cronies, very fun bench racing with 'em.

Had a blast calling the race with ole Eschelmen, very fun. Got a number of calls saying I did a good job, thanks to all who called.

Just figures the Dirt Crow would tap out, mack, what is your deal these days? Have you no cashews anymore? It was a fun time down there, will be back next year and the next, I'll be takin' a dirt nap before I miss this show.

I can remember back in the late seventies when the whole show was over by 6 or 6:30.
