Race this Saturday night -- Rodney, 21:30:30 06/19/09 Fri [2]
I would like to thank Bonnie and Tracie for their efforts to give us a place to race, but in saying that I would also like to think that all the cars from Houston would support them in any way possible. I know it's Fathers day weekend , but it was also Easter weekend at Evadale when we all drove down to support your local race . This is the first time we will race at Crandall and it is very important that we have a good car count. Do what you think is right!!! Maybe next year you can run with Joe and Kenjo. The 6500.00 purse that we run for is the same as the KOTH and Pro-mods. Happy Fathers Day.

There was some question on towing to scales the rule is you must drive to scales and your crew can't pass scales to pick u up unless their is a KOTH person with you. At the two tracks that have there own scales is the only place this could be a problem now days. We as a group will address this at the next race and vote on how ya'll want to do this and revise the rule if need be. Thanks -- Shan, 20:21:54 06/18/09 Thu [4]
