Something like this: < NOT 100% sure so bear with me
Cruisers 36/28/00/54/40
Hornets 17/07/97/43/13
Midgets 25/34/9/8x/55
Sprints F1/08/76/33/72
Mods 11/ / / / then the lights went out ...................
Who is flipping that switch ? They should lock the thing. Can't blame it on Beer Sales, as it was after last call

| man, this has been an ongoing problem all year. you would think that they would have taken some sort of action by now. definitely need to get it taken care of before next weekend.

From what I've seen, they've been taking action on many issues this year and especially this week.
Great idea on getting rid of the HUGE berm around the inside of the track. And moving the pace truck off the track during warm-up laps was another thing they've taken action on- good move.
Did you notice the Grader being used to prep the track. Another problem taken care of this week.
With the issue of the lights not consistently working again. Could we think of this as "going dark", it's the same for everyone.
I think it will get addressed and if not, it'll be the same for all of us.
Kudos to George for not shortening the sprint main (or other races) due to time. With each lap, at least one car was getting better......or was the driver getting braver? Good Job #19.

San Jose Speedway racer Mike Sargent- Lorain County Ohio 1975 running the Carlings 500 racing series (4 or 5 nights through Ohio) and not an enclosed trailer in sight. Hell a two axle trailer was a luxury.
Vern Church from Seattle ran the series that year too.
During that era, the joke back there among the Midwest guys that ran the offset roadsters and Bill Hite rear engine cars was how are they going to beat our $10K chassis with their San Jose style chassis that lacked technology or basic geometric influence.
The Midwest contingent is still bewildered.

The 14 Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, 2nd Cousins, and Grandma that were sitting in the stands last night to watch sprint cars and TJ racing for the first time used a word OTHER than "braver" to describe TJ's run from 16th to 6th last night. 
Way to redeem yourself from last week TJ.  
OH! And they said all you drivers are crazy! Thanks for putting on a show.

Thanks Andrew. I had fun! I was trying my hardest to get a top 5!
I liked that wheelie that I did also! 
My dad said he was going to be sick...
Oh, and they said at the pit meeting that because Brian Egan is gone, mylaps wont be up until he gets back.

More stagger in the front than the rear! Reason being?

| I can't believe no one commented on Greg #19 being the " carrier of the cone"!!! Sort of an Olympic event in the modifieds!! Entertaining to the crowd and the talk around the concession stand afterwards!!

| One of those darn orange cones hitched a ride on Greg #19's car and went for a few laps around the track. Seems like it worked out as a good luck charm for him too. Maybe Fletch can help me out here.

| That was something I've never had happen before. I could see it every time the left front hit a bump. I think I picked it up on lap 2 and it was still there when I got back to my pit. I got more comments on that than anyhting else all year.
