Just a tip for the future in case that happens again, if you hit submit and find out you were timed out, click back instead. Then you can copy your post, sign in, then paste in the reply box.... Better than wasting your time.Originally posted by dirt crow View PostI tried to post a nice long 2 cents on the ice bowl but I got logged out and it disappeared. So to hel! with it.

Well I never said anything about running the event in one day, so I guess I won't waste any more of your time.Originally posted by Late_Model_Mark View PostTerryM, I firmly disagree with most of your premise, there is no way in heck this thing can be run in one day. Think of this my Georgia racefan, so many of these teams are bustin' out new stuff and they need to shake things down. With the shear number of cars, just getting hot laps in and so on is quite a undertaking. We do not fool around at the Ice Bowl as far as scheduling. It is one class after another with no f-in around, trust me on that. No lolli-gagging at all. This race is actually a pain in the neck to get done, a good pain in the neck though. For the price of admission, you really get your moneys worth.
This is a event where a race breaks out, ya get to see folks you only see once a year, or once in a awhile. Terrym, does every race have to be perfect? Run in one day or within 10 minutes?
Even for me, this is busy event with a lot of stress announcing, but I love it.

I've been to all but two ice bowls missed one cause of a funeral an I was in hospital for another,I remember when bout everybody made the race, remember the party's at Dee Ford's place.The racing not great every year but most of the time it is I think it's more of a happening where some come for a race but a lot come to see people they see once a year

I have wanted to attend this race. It would be hard to have what 340 cars run in 1 day. Maybe run all hotlaps and qualifying and heats on Saturday and consis and features Sunday but better pray no rain.

If ya need any info on this event where a race breaks out, go to www.talladegashorttrack.com and click on the Ice Bowl section. It will have all the info on this cool event. This will be only my 11th Ice Bowl overall, getting to announce this mammoth event is even cooler. For what you pay you get a ridiculous amount of racing, you get your fill for sure.
