Less than 48 hours to get 1 more member for the second pool.  If we don't get that qualified member, pool 2 becomes a straight 5'er drawing.

I am going to do a random number draw early Friday Morning and then will post the list of drivers you will receive.  If you need a quick refresh, check out the thread from last year.

Okay, who is going to be our final entry?

I guess that answered our question about there being 22 active members.   :-(

Okay, with gitfiddl, we have a full second field and are good to go.

Thank you to everyone who is participating and good luck to you all.

I will post the results of the draw tomorrow afternoon.  Each of you will be assigned 3 drivers and will receive points based on their finishing position.  The member with the most points wins.

Good luck to everyone, but there can only be one winner in each group (welcome to the thunderdome).

Great day at the track so far, another few on tap in the next few days.

Hope you all have a great Memorial Day weekend.

I will try to get the results posted soon after the conclusion (Sunday Night hopefully).  Will try to get the prize packs out early in the week.

Should be fun.  Here's hoping for a (SAFE) wreck that only affects the first half of the field!  We bottom-dwellers are going to make a statement!
