Maybe with Speedweek being so early there will be some preliminary dragging done in the second half of July

I was wondering even if we got enough entries to have the TnT if the salt would be dry enough to run on. I'm about 130 miles down wind from the salt & it's been consistently wet here & the forecast is rain for the next week. Spring came late & we're barely making 60 deg on a warm day. After last year's mess there should be a lot of race cars ready to go!

Yeah Sid, that was another issue-as we know salt can look good from pictures but only boots on the ground tell the truth- I'm sure most of the old timers have stories to tell about that -but at least they had good salt to deal with ............. Fingers x'ed for August/Sept/Oct  :friday

I think BUB canceled their private T&T based on a FB post.
