We normally don't have a messed up schedule like this, but the newly completed 4 lanes/wide has screwed everything up! Apr. is busy starting with the National, Divisional & The Million; basically 3 weeks of straight racing. I decided to only run the Million.

As for the HOT racing, our last race before summer break is usually the 1st weekend on June, then back to racing in Sept.

Pretty sure they have midnight madness during the sizzle season too. Used to love the very late night races at Sac Raceway. Hotter than heck during the day then it came alive at night.

Hey B King , I’ll try to stop by at the Million . That is going to be a great time. Moe is signed up already , time passes a little slower when your waiting on a big event! I have a couple of S/ST race’s next week that I’m looking forward too. So lately time is going by real slow for this old guy,

That would be great! I would like to meet up with some of the DRR folks. I'm easy to find in the lanes with only 38 cars in the class.

Good luck on your S/ST races.

By the way, the new track is great. We are running on lanes 1 & 2 this weekend and 3 & 4 next weekend.

B King I just got into town tonight. I will be installing my new engine tomorrow and I might make it out there as I heard they don’t start until around 3pm. If not I will be there on Sunday.
