I can add a little insight on I-96. Might have even been me on the other website. Anyways...they are already working on the half mile at I-96. They have been dragging it, packing it, sheepsfooting it, and watering it already. When I got there Saturday night, I was amazed. The half mile was wet. Wet like they have been watering it right along, and was wet deep, not wet like they just dumped some water on it or or it just rained on it a bit. It was smooth as smooth can be also. They have no races this coming weekend, to able to spend more time on track prep. They have to doze the 3/8 front stretch out of the way for the half mile front stretch. If there are any questions, that's where they will be. How good (and wide) will the front be. The rest of the track will be awesome. There was a little talk also about taking the top off the 3/8 to make sure everyone can see the 1/2 that much better. That would surprise me if they go that far, but it will be awesome either way. If you come, stop by the ambulance and say hi. I'll be the big fat ugly paramedic with the sprint car home in the garage. LOL At least I know there will be adequate/knowledgeable medical coverage for the racers both nights.
