I just got back from Pittsburg Jake I will post some pics of the dirt drack tomarrow. May 1st. The jury is still out on pins or foams. As a money option it is cheeper for a guy to run the foam. A set of tires will last all year. What the pin guys don't seem to understand, the blue glay will eat those pins in a few weeks.

Last year the person behind me to build the dirt oval pushed foams only. Well having just a few guys each week really didn't make much sence. Plus the guy who pushed me to make the thing, only raced it twice ? :confused:

Unless I get a big turn out of guys who insest on foam only and will come each week to support it, its going to be run what you brung. PINS I tear up the track each day before the race anyways. dig it up, drag it, roll it, water it, water it, roll it, Pins arn't going to make a big difference, its not going to hurt ot dirt. Any suggestions ?

Freddie, If we have enough for a class can we run it? Us grove city guys dont know about building a edm just to come up once in a while, but maybe if 3 or 4 of us brought a buggy?
