Had less than fun day trying to get car down track. Seemed to break or leak something new every attempt.
The track crew and owner were awesome Had minor oil leak.Actually think just oil from having VC's off, but they did their job.Had us shut down and told us if could fix we could still make the run. Track owner offered us his golf cart to pull car back to pits. then let us use for rest of the day.
Nedw owner who I had never met before yesterday. I think he went above and beyond.

Now with Jimmy Turner who owned it when we ran the first 3-second pass there and was always his headliner team for match races. I would have figured the treatment. But for someone who knew nothing of our team or past there. It was above and beyond tratment.

There has been no ownership change. ROn Senecal is the owner and has been for some years now. There has been a change of management, Rick Moore and a lady named Buffy are going to be running things for Ron. Wishing them all the best.

Don't feel bad Chris been several that "claimed" they owned the place when all along it belonged to Jim Turner. Senecal is the first one to come up with his own money to really own it--I think!

Like I said. Jim offering me his golf cart for use would not surprise me in least. Then Have known him since late 80's.

Love it! My Sister lived next door to Jims Mom. Bubba used to rope us off a spot when we came down from Baltimore to those top gun shoot outs years ago. I have had some good times at that place. About got car back together so I may be there soon testing.
