i had a good time out at the track today,, pancars are starting to come around good, the touring oval latemodels are doin fine also. it just was a great day of test and tune, and bench racing with keith Roberson , Racer tim halpin, Mitch , Keith Douglas and a former waycross gang member Phillip Owen. Phillip was on hand telling us about the mcpappy ride, daytona, give some tips out to some racers, and even piloted a 4wd touring latemodel bloomquist car in a great hot lap run,, with a smile he said they are fun. hope things keep gettin better and keep slowly grown.

Don I had a good time sitting around talking and bench racing with the old Waycross gang,sure brought back old memories.You guys have a real nice facility and good atmosphere.The only thing I would recommend is setting your rules on classes to correspond with other tracks,so other racers can come and race at your track with the equipment they already have.Other then that I wish you guys all the luck in the world,I just wish we had a place like that when I lived there it sure would have cut down on traveling. Oh and by the way thanks for letting me drive your late model it was alot of fun even though it had a Bloomquist body on it ha ha !!!

what is the transponder situation? We all have AMB personal transponders and I understand you use something different. I have a couple of AMB transponders to loan out if you come up and race with us.
