      You better worry about how it holds up after they 300 or 400 hundred cars over it every night for a week look at the schedule of events.

        Busch also ran a late model sat Williams Grove in 09. I'm thinking it was for a charity of some sort.

            Both cars were ridiculously fast 20 yrs ago...So fast the aluminum wheels wasn't holding up..... They either made everybody or they choose to...Steel Wheels!! Sprints, some were never lifting!!! After couple days of racing with all them classes, should slick off and slow down. I agree wth whomever said it, them cup racers should be racing Heavy ass street stockers, might be closer to what there cars will race like..?

                I bet when the track does slick off you'll see everyone complaining about the dust. Then you have a visibility issue. 1 poster above said it, those wheel centers were not designed for that kind of stress.

                  Here are a couple of laps with Kyle Strickler on the track in the #8. Video taken from the Bristol Motor Speedway infield.
                  That motor is singing. Except for maybe once it doesn't sound like he really let off the gas.

                      They better bring their best engines. Doubt they'll all be singing at the end of the day. Engine builders probably have their fingers crossed.

                        It was hard on the wheels, but most teams did not switch to steel; just couldn't run what they called the 'xl's at that time. Track will be very similar to Wythe (20 years ago everyone tested at Wythe before Bristol, shapes are a little different but the banking was close). Wythe has a class (Super Street?) that would be good for the Cup drivers. In fact one of the regulars from Wythe ran very well at the Eldora truck race one of the first times NASCAR was there.
