Never seen it in person maybe the length just overshadows the width

I know when we've done them in the past, its been in conjunction with a charity event, but I wasn't sure if there were any talks of doing it again.

Last time I did it, I had a different car and I'd love to do it again.

When you enter the main entrance, paddock will be just to your left and we will have a little different set up for grid/paddock as we will grid up in the pit area near the start and this lot will feature 1500 feet in length and be a little different than what we are used to. Looking forward to seeing everyone at this event. Thanks JY

Please don't try for four cars on course. It's really hectic on the timing team and ends up causing delays due to errors made in the trailer.

Seems like it could be fun to me. I always loved the "straight" (cept the 90 degree turn at the end, hehe) part at the Nashville Speedway.

You all just might get to run what we did at the Blytheville pro on the way out...and the sweeper at the end will be way bigger than we have ever had before.

I will be late getting there,due to the guy driving in to pick up the Mazda. So, if Pro can run 3rd... that'd be great!!
(we will see just how important a few course walks can be) :lol:

Weather for Saturday is going to be good as of now with only 20% chance of the r word and 70 degrees for the high. Come on out and see what we got to run at the Blytheville pro as we can use some of the going out with a minor tweek here and there. It will be a course that we don't or cant do unless we are on this lot at BMS, so don't miss out.
