Chuck, plan to be there....which gate do they use now, the one off 22 or the Stone Jug Road gate? Also, what is the racing fee?

Clearly, I'm not Chuck, but yes entrance off of 22 before Stone Jug, and it costs $50 to run Mod and Top $800 (M) and $1000 (T) to win

CulpK348Chuck,
We should touch base when I am there....I have really missed racing there over the past couple of years. I am really looking forward to being there for several weekends over the next two months. I want to race the 660 BB race and the GGG race this year.
Look me up when you see the big blue Monte Carlo whale pull in....LOL...
BTW...Thanks for the information Mark.

. I'm really looking forward to September, bracket finals, PID-Keystone nostalgia race, 660 Bottom Bulb, GGG, ton of great racing.

CulpK348No bracket finals for me this year. I have not run points in years but decided to this past year. However, still chasing gremlins in the new car...think I finally got them figured out, but lost a lot of first rounds as a result. I can fill you in when I get there. I will stop by and say hello. will probably park in the same area that you are describing because I have a small scooter that does not take well to big rocks.

ski_dwn_itWhy does the Web site for keystone look like it does? Not very user friendly in its current state. Looks the same in mobile and desktop version.

CulpK348So, just wanted to say it was great seeing a good many of my friends this past weekend. It was a great show and great to catch up with several of you even though Matt Cadamore told my wife I talk to much....LOL....I hope to get out there again after I get my Transmission fixed.
Greg, it was a good talk that we had when I was leaving. We will talk again.
