Let's Talk Bumps-Any Bumps! Going Strong Since Jan. 2013
We're very lucky that we have such a great series to run down here! On a normal Saturday race we get 6-10 cars for an 8 car field. Our field was a little smaller than normal for the ODRC race, there were 4 cars that broke Saturday and couldn't make the call for Sunday (many times we just do an all run field if there is more than 8 but less than 16, we're all about letting people race). We race with a great group of guys, it's a tight knit group that will give you the shirt off their backs if it'll help get you down the racetrack. And the staff at BMP is beyond great to us, Allen and Todd (owners) will thank us for being there everytime they see us throughout the weekend, as well as all the BMP staff, it's another reason that keeps us coming back.

Yes Brian, it's a .400 pro tree!

Wave we have about the same deal up here at tompson, the owner really wants us to be here,always freindly aways making sure every thing is good and asking us how we like the track prep(which is great)making sure we all get plenty of PA time. we pull from 10 to 16 open cars for every race and about the same number of door cars(8 open/8 door two winners no mixing) I bracket raced (I still do) for 45 years and never had as much fun as running the heads up stuff. If you ever get to northern ohio check out the asphalt wars at tompson dragwayor check out InsideFastbrackets.com and check all of the asphalt wars videos. there is quite a few Waveon the stripe buzz page Cool

That reminds me of a joke.

Why do they call it PMS?



Because "Mad cow disease" was already taken!

HM Motorsports i am not flying in until Friday the 6th of Dec. Where is the track located? I will be in San Jaun until Sunday afternoon.

Salinas is on the opposite side of the island... When we raced in PR we always stayed in San Juan and drove over, it's a decent little ride but you see some beautiful land. Oh and it's like driving the autobahn, or at least it was when we went. Although it's been about 14 years since the last time I raced there...
