I hope a bunch of air-cooled cars will come out and race.  The water-cooled guys are really looking forward to racing with you guys.

We will have signup for this Class at Dino's Saturday night. If you can't make it then, just be at track first thing in the morning Sunday and we can do it then.

For those of you that will be coming Saturday night to camp or setup. We contacted the track and they said anytime after 5pm there will be no charge. Please keep in mind, that with all the rain they have had, we are not sure of the condition of the grassy areas. If you have any questions, please give us a call. We will be at the track Saturday evening.

Also for any road conditions, please visit www.511pa.com. This will let you see the whole state and what conditions are happening. Didn't see any for the Western Part. We hope that some of you from the East can join us, but certainly understand if you can't go anywhere. We will certainly have all you guys in our thoughts and prayers!

It was low.  I think the threat of rain on race day, preceded by rain in the area all week kept a lot of people away (although it turned-out to be a beautiful day Sunday).  A lot of east coast racers that were scheduled to come were forced to stay home due to the severe rain and flooding in MD, NY, & NJ.  I have friends who were battling flooded basements and washed-out roads who otherwise would have been at the race.  This combined with the usual breakage/ attrition held the numbers down this year.  Hopefully next year will be bigger and better than ever.
