Let the count down begin,

I think we are going to have a outstanding # of people show up for this yr.

And remember folks who are reading this thinking they may not come down,,Your Vote is just as important as the next person's. Plus you get to munch out on some Bomb BBQ.

thanks,

woulda been better if more people stayed for sunday.. there were 2 heats of 1/10th saturday and people didn't return on sunday, so that left it at 9 cars for the heat, so there was only an A main, but I was still qualified 5th on saturday out of the two heats.

I woulda TQ'd on sunday morning, but I ran out of fuel with 30 seconds to go, I woulda gotten 22 laps, the other TQ had 21 laps
