Atomic Speedway 27 days away (hard to believe with all this snow)

[chupp n bloomer fan]

For as long as I can remember kc/atomic had always had a race in early March. Sometimes they get it in and sometimes they dont. It's no different than scheduling a race in late September or early October around these parts...or anywhere for that matter.

I took a friend to kc back a few years ago and watched the early race. The track was rough, but it was a great show. Carrier ended up passing Bloomquist on the high side where no one else had tried. I believe Carrier made a lot of new fans that night.

Even though I've done been to a couple races, I'll be burnt up to go when the time comes.

I was there Zac. They usually open in the beginning to the middle of April. This is the earliest I've ever seen them try for. I'll support it, long as it doesn't look like rain. Learned my lesson last year. Track was rough that night, but the racing was pretty good. Second race I seen Eddie win there that was bigger. When he won the KC 100 in like 03', right after he started with Carl, that was his first big race win. And I'll always remember it. Was very special for him and he's a breath of fresh air.

I have no idea. I just know the track was extremely rough last year until the brushcreek guys came in for the open wheel race. I sure hope they keep it that way because Atomic/KC is one of the best dirt tracks in the world when it is prepped right.

Be a good guess then that Schrader ran them off. Or they didn't get along with Brad possibly. I don't think it's feasible though to try and prep two tracks for a year. And heck ya, when prepped, Atomic is a top tier track. Shame Nier don't want it, he made great strides. Hopefully Brad can gradually make some strides too.
