That was a really fun night of racing, had a blast. Thank you all for the kind words, it means a lot and I'm glad everyone is having fun! How about that last corner pass in the dash for cash?!?!

I have to say that last night was one of the most fun nights of racing that I can remember. It was good to see so many racers and so many close races and a very exciting dash for cash.
Thanks Rod and Chris...great job.

Had a lot of fun Friday night also it was good to see some of the guys that don't race outdoors much. I was a little hesitant on coming because I am in outdoor mode and like having indoor and outdoor seasons. I might have to rethink that and show up on Friday nights a little more often. However last year I missed about 2 or 3 Saturday races so I do fully support the Saturday race program and always look forward to the fall when it starts.

All those comments are really appreciated.

Curbs were put in the track on Saturday. Hopefully they make the layout even better.

Baumgartner, if I order the jconcepts turnbuckles for my 22 will the kit come with the right size turnbuckles since I have the bellcranks?

They will work. I have them on my car with the bellcranks. They're 3.5mm, so they will work with angled and straight HD ball cups. The part number you need is JCO2362

So you didn't run into a problem with the turnbuckles being to long for steering? Did you do any cutting?

I didn't have to cut anything, but I did have to thread them in pretty far. I ran them in and out a few times to try and cut the threads in the cups more and free them up.
