<<<IMPORTANT>>>


**We will have the track resurfaced before the outdoor season starts and then go over which is the "SMARTEST" tire we should run for the spec tire to keep racing costs down, and eliminate the dreaded "your tire makes your car faster!, I can't afford your tire" argument! but If by chance the resurfacing isn't completed before the season starts...by all means run what ever tire that gets the job done!, but as stated above when the track is done, we will have a "sit-down" on what keeps the playing field even!!! UNLESS...it's decided to keep T&L an "open tire" track, these are the rules we are using as our guideline!**


**This year the race fee is raised to $15 to keep up with regular track maintenance and to have sufficient funds for up-keep around the track...it is after all the Great Outdoors and most of us have already seen the T&L river**


**We also wanted to coordinate our schedule with that of other tracks time slots and race on a different day...no dice with the locals, but when all was said and done the decision to take care of home is the best thing for this track and the shop**


**I will update this first page as more info comes in**


**If there are Questions about anything mentioned above or something I forgot to touch base on, pm me or email me at [email protected]**

Outstanding news...I am excited to get back out doors and burn some rubber on asphalt :sneaky: (no pun Intended) :lol: I know this will be exciting season as alot of guys have been taking the winter off and will be eager to get back to touring car.

If any help is needed please ask me and I will do what I can!

Yo Kitchen no mention on when will be the first race. Thought you might want that in your first post

Elijah 03-09-2010 09:00 AM

Kitch, I am in for 17.5, 13.5 would be nice but the track is just right for 17.5 with the new software 203 and most of the guys I think would run 17.5 anyway 13.5 is a little too much.

Potoczak 03-09-2010 09:50 AM

How are you guys planning on resurfacing the track????? Any help needed let me know!!!

tenpins77 03-09-2010 11:25 AM

ElectriMagician 03-09-2010 04:37 PM
