Jerry, Mark, Ben, and I were out and worked on the track yesturday. Jerry got the packer going, so we packed and watered the track, it looks really good. We want to have a test and tune night Wednesday the 12th So please come out so we all can see how our cars work. I think we are going to try and be out there about 5:30, We can get about 3 hours of practice in, Im excited and ready to get racing.

Thanks for the credit Jeremy but Mark helped with getting the packer going too. I'd also like to thank you for being out there to help this spring. There will be some work to do yet next Wednesday...mowing, work on the off-road track, testing the computer and PA system to make sure they are ready for our first race on that following Sunday etc... Things are looking good guys and I am ready to race! With as much work as there is to do just to get the track ready after the winter it makes me think about all the work that Bergie, Mark, Chris and others put into this site when they started from scratch. I don't think any of us really appreciated how much work that was. Thanks guys!

The kids and I went out yesterday to mow and anything else needing to be done, except the gates were closed and locked. I have Monday nites and Saturday afternoons were I can generally help with the track, the rest of the week I'm running the kids to practices and games.

Thanks for making the effort to come out but we had decided (at the pre-seson meeting) to not schedule any activities at the track on Mother's Day weekend - that's why nobody was out there. There should be some racers at the track this Wednesday night (weather permitting) for some test-n-tune time and to do some work. I haven't seen a schedule posetd for the races yet but at the meeting it was suggested that our first race be on Sunday May 16th abd that we race every-other weekend. It was also suggested that we schedule our races on the opposite weekends as Hadar races since some of our racers like to go there to race. We really need to get a schedule posted on the website so people know when our races are.
Hope to see some racers at the track on Wednesday! If we get rained out we'll see you there on Sunday.

Jeremy and I were planning on trying to get out there a little early and have the track packed and watered so it was ready to go about 5:30 or so. It's not looking good (weather wise) - I might drive out there tonight to see how it looks but we are also supposed to get more rain tomorrow.

Yup, I was out at the track last night for a little bit and got a couple of things done. The oval actually looked pretty good - muddy, but not washed out anywhere. Hope we get some sun and wind to dry things out for Sunday!

Hey Jeremy....the packer now has a new muffler (pointed away from the driver!) - no more hot legs! Hmmmm, I could have worded that better! I was also going to do some mowing tonight but when I got out there Brad S. had already mowed the entire area around both tracks! THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR HELP BRAD!!!!! The track is looking good guys. Now all we need are some racers!
See you at the track this Sunday!
