I believe that's a couple of weeks out. I'd rather go to Kokomo than up there although I heard it was a nice place to run. I can't justify leaving shop for such an event even if I was leading the points. Kinda jacked that they run so many weekday races so far away, doesn't give anyone other than their own cars an fair chance to win this r compete for a points title. Reminds me of the Wolfe brothers flat drags, so many family entries they're guaranteed to get money besides what they make for "promoting the show"

Someone needs to get their facts straight. There is only one entry that is family. As a person who does pay off we have not made a profit all year. The reason we run through the week is because there are not many tracks that will race TQs so we pick up fairs so the guys will have more races. We could run 90 percent of our races at one track but the promoter choses not to.

Looks like I might need a new eye specialist, just can't read with my head up my tukus, I coulda sworn that was this weekend, oh well, it's tough when you fall apart all at once, not just one at a time, Nick wanted to know if I was going, and that was my first clue I had the dates wrong, wish I could, we have traveled a lot over the past 60+ years, racing as much and whatever we could, had a lot of fun, met a lot of nice people, and visited places a lot of people never heard of, and spent a lot of money, something I never kept track of, a long as we had enough to go the next time.

I had a blast last year and will be going again this year. As far as running the points. It does suck running fair races on week days, but who said points racing is easy. I will continue to run the the king series as I think they are the best fit for my team. Hope to see a good car count both nights.
