Big News Coming From Talladega Short Track

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

If only a Lucas race could put late models in the garages of Alabama residents.

That's too excessive even for them!! *Just* 6!!!

I’m hoping Lucas will make the call on how many support classes that night and the running order. If it was my call, I’d take the two lower classes that best supported the track the year before to be support classes for the night. Hot shots would definitely be one. Though not popular with most fans, TST has had a full field of em every week. You’d have to reward em.

Tried to reply with quote but check out the guy that gets accused of bashing the little guy probably more than anybody else (unfairly) calling for the hot shot division to get to race in front of a big crowd....

You going to both shows that weekend?

I doubt it, I'll probably be at Bristol with the 51 on Saturday...

Weather should be good in APRIL. It’s right after spring break for us so I’ll see how much effort I put FOURTH in going.

Should be a great show and a packed house. Essex will get them fired up on the mic.

I agree with DC that the Hot Shots should be on the cars, some good action and very good support. I also would like to see no more than 4 classes run as well. You need a good, no great back gate to make a show with this cost work. I have put in some input on this subject but it ain't my final call of course.

Where there is smoke, there could be fire.

If I had the call, and I may catch some 105mm. Flak for this, my line up would be...…..

1. Lucas
2. 602 Lates
3. Modifieds-(best racing all year at TST)
4. Hot Shots

Great news Mark!!!! I was trying to remember when the last time Lucas raced there, was it 2006? If my memory isn't fried, I think the last time they were scheduled there was going to be a 7,000$ show on a Thursday night and it rained out.
