If you can only run on sunday, come anyway. Only thing is, you will start at bottom of lowest main. That would mean, you would have to win bump ups to move up through the mains.

This is for charity guys, 1 day is better than none.

Not comfortable at all with putting my car on a track yet but screw it, ill be down for this. Should be able to attend the whole weekend.

I am also a photographer by trade so I'll bring my camera to get some good photos of the event.

Also, what time to things kick off on the 25th? don't get off work till 5pm

YES, HERE AT G'S, WE DID TRY A TWO DAY RACE AGAIN. WE DID THAT 2 YEARS AGO AND PEOPLE CAMPED OUT ON THE PROPERTY AND WE HAD A GRAND TIME, BOTH DAYS!
LAST YEAR, WE DID A 1 DAY RACE, SOME OF THE RACERS SAID IT LASTED TOO LONG. SO, WHAT DO YOU DO? HOPE THAT ONE DAY EVERYONE MAY BE HAPPY! ROBIN

THE TRACK IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT THIS YEAR, THANKS TO G, JASON, AND BEN. COME ON DOWN AND GIVE IT A TRY, TOM.

I PROMISE I WILL GIVE YOU THE ICE CREAM CONE-CUPCAKE RECIPE!

Hey Rob, here is an idea, if you want to run both days why not run a "full show" both days, that way all the ppl that can only come 1 day will get to race a full show. If someone runs both days you could give them a discount on the 2nd day of racing...just an idea

In the process of scheduling them now. No race this weekend. Saturday we are heading to McCullough's and Sunday is Father's Day.

I had a great time last year at G's! Great track, people and atmosphere. I remember good food and trophies for all the kids/participants.

I am down for the 1 day event. Thats all i'd probably be making anyway....
