Re: Don't Complain About Concession Prices

I wonder what the prices will be for the 2nd story, open patio Denny's on the Vegas strip in November? The Grand Slam Breakfast will probably be $1329.00, not $13.29

Re: Too Much??

Sandy, if you have the time or chance, what were the numbers for 3 or 5 years later. I really think the recession and gas prices then was a heavy blow to racing. Here in STL, the revered I-55...

Re: Red or yellow

No. If it's a tip, slow roll, etc and the driver is not in danger of getting hit in the cage, leave it yellow. No different than a spinout
