TUESDAY TALK:
The 2 divisions of racing finished around 9:10, good job to everyone for keeping everything moving along. Close action in the Cup class as less than 1 lap seperated 2nd to 6th. Good to see Toby Reinhard making his initial starts in both classes and finishing 8th in sprints. Next week modifieds return on the 8-lane.
