I’m excited to see two qualifying sessions on Friday. Last year there was only one session. Just wish they had the Alky cars too!

I agree! The midwest has quite a few alky cars. Possibly enough to fill both fields.

Very cool. When Bob was killed racing in Az ,they were heading to Cali but stopped there to make a couple of bucks. Pop quit right after the accident. He's is still around. I might drag him to RT 66 for the races.
