TUESDAY TALK:

 

What a fun and action packed night of racing, where do I start? Opening night Cup winner ” Rollercoaster ” Randy had quite a good coasting car to finish 6th. With a strong run on lane 1 Brian Sponagle scored a 8th place finish. Very close IROC finish as the top 3 were separated by only 16 pieces of track. Great run by Cory Reinhardt to finish 3rd. Thanks to Billy Decker for his time getting the IROC cars very competitive. The drawing date for the losing 50/50 tickets will be November 4, 2014.
