    Why run 3 division that look and somewhat sound similar on same night. Kinda takes away from the main attraction when 2 support division look like your special. Casual fan will be all kinds of confused

    The “casual fan” will only see two classes. Lucas and 604 crates. Everything else won’t hit the track until after the Lucas feature by which time the casual fan will be on I-20 or headed back to the Killin Time in Pell City.

    Your welcome.

    ***Cooler Policy***
    A very friendly one, you can bring in your cooler with anything you like, just no glass please. We like to have our fans the option of bringing in their own beverages and food if they like...just no glass, simple, and easy.

    Luke I got the schedule/running order last Saturday night, a full week in advance, I will inquire about your question.

    Come early as a big crowd is expected and the parking lot will fill up even though we have acreage.

    So your catching my point. Eliminate the 604 & 602 and just run mods and hot shot and you have a full night racing and a variety for the fans. I'm not in crate country thankfully but even as a schooled fan found 411 new years show confusing trying to figure out which late models were on track, that's not good for fans

    Doesn't make sense to run that much support classes.

    Nothing except 604’s will even hot lap until after the Lucas feature. If you’re going to watch the Lucas show only you’ll see exactly two divisions.

    If that’s confusing or too many maybe pick up a new hobby.

    D Glenn I’ll be a late arrival. Got a cornhole tournament in Arab Saturday morning. Hope I hit it just right on time for the heats.

    It is very, very similar to last years schedule. We are trying to accommodate folks who are traveling some miles "and" our regular fans, do the big stuff first as so many folks gripe about tracks having the big race late or last so they can sell more food, we are going to sell a sh&#load of food anyways.


    Last year we finished up the whole she-bang around 11:30pm.

    The trek of the gregarious Dirt Crow from Arab, east on 431, he will hang a right on Hwy 77, fly thru Attalla, Rainbow City, then a couple of counties, cross over I-20, turn left on Speedway Blvd, hustle down the Blvd, hang a Louie into the track, sit in the pit grandstand and then avoid LMM like a plague......LOL
