At least jimmy shows support to the mini sprints and gives us a place to race. They did pay what they advertized and it was $700 to win and $100 to start. Im sure if we had more cars we would have gotpaid more, But thats racing sometimes you have a bunch of cars and sometimes you dont have any.

Those guy's were great to us a couple of years ago. They kept the AMSA afloat when they had no other place to run. I had never seen so many sidewinders before in my life. I can still remember camping out in their pits after the race and heading back south at day break. Those were the days my friend. Almost as good as Brown County Ohio with the Buckeye 600cc mini-sprints.
The track was a little small for us but it was always racey. It had a neat little coushion.
Gas was a lot cheaper and I had a lot more money then.
