Would be a great opportunity for Putnam County to grab a race since they are reopening. Or maybe Screven, Waycross, or even North Florida? I know it is unlikely but would he nice for all the guys that are already at Volusia the weekend before.

xfactor, is Putnam County in the same configuration as it was back when Volusia was asphalt? We went up there from Daytona several times back then and we were not all that enthralled with the looooong straights and hairpin tight turns.Originally posted by thexfactor0210 View PostWould be a great opportunity for Putnam County to grab a race since they are reopening.

Not sure exactly..it was closed last year and a new roofing contractor bought it. Making a lot of changes and putting a little money into it. Holding their first practice night soon.Originally posted by CIRF View Postxfactor, is Putnam County in the same configuration as it was back when Volusia was asphalt?

They brought in new clay and widened the turns some!
One of my favorite tracks when Bob Potter bought it and completely redone the whole facility. It was first class then and had some awesome weekly racing!

Ok guys. How about some info on this place ? Track size ? Passing or a follow the leader type of place ? Places to stay ? Track food ?

Track has long straights and low banked corners. Could be a snoozer again for open motor cars but the powell memorial crate race last months was pretty good. Be interesting to see. Seems like a configuration you see the big block mods run alot.
It is convenient though that it's pretty close to the highway. There's a few motels there. They might go fast with the rescheduling though.2020 race count:
1/2 of an event

Plenty of motels between Lake City and Gainesville......even Ocala if ya dont mind driving a little!Originally posted by dirtcrazy4u View PostOk guys. How about some info on this place ? Track size ? Passing or a follow the leader type of place ? Places to stay ? Track food ?
Concessions is pretty decent.....they do have a local bbq food truck that has pretty good bbq!
If you stay in Lake City, try Ken's for good local bbq or Texas Roadhouse for steak!

BRP hosted 2 USAC National Midget shows and 2 USAC National Sprint Car shows back in February.Originally posted by ZERO25 View PostStill not 100% sold on Bubba keeping his dates!
He has only had 1 race this year!
Both the USAC Midgets and 410 Sprint Cars are scheduled to be at BRP in Feb. 2021.
ZERO, what are you hearing down that way in regards to Bubba's financial trepidations? Just curious as to you're skepticism of Bubba keeping his dates.
