WoO Tazewell ( 2 July )

[TNDirt]

Only 30 cars for $20,000 to win, two day Outlaw show? Very surprising, I thought there would be 45-50 at least. Why such the low number?

Not too surprising really. Tazewell is not known for high car counts, they only average 30-35 cars for the Lucas and WoO shows.. The Taz is very hard on equipment and I think drivers are afraid of the Taz. As a fan it is one of the best tracks ever No matter the car count it is going to be a awesome.

[TerryM]

Thanks alot Terry, I'm looking forward to this one, hope its a FAST caution free race

If it goes caution-free, it'll be without a doubt the fastest 100 laps in the history of dirt track racing! But it'd take a miracle to run 100 laps at Tazewell without a caution.

[SprintFun]

Keep at it Ron Davies!

Sounds like lots of tire issues, I'd be nervous if I was at the front.
