Where did you go, how was the show? Went to New Egypt Speedway as a fan in the stands. Cost $27.00 for adult ticket, start time 6:45 Modifieds, Crate Sportsman, News Sprints, 4 cylinders and Rookies graduation night. Likes – Not going to rehash everything, no complaints with the Modified and Sportsman feature events. The track surface was decent, for the most part it was an enjoyable night out. Dis- Likes: The actual start time as mentioned in Scott’s post. Why have fans show up early to see racing to sit for a half hour instead? Since when do tracks give out diplomas to Rookies? Billy Pauch, Ken Brenn, and other Rookies never received diplomas as far as I recall. I guess everyone deserves a participation trophy nowadays. If you’re going to do a graduation ceremony, please let us know, so we don’t sit there bored for a ½ hour. Next time please start the ceremonies earlier and start the actual racing at 7 pm. You could have considered doing it during intermission, that would have been better. Suggestion - Please check the guardrail where the poll was bent on the front stretch. Looks like the steel posts holding the guardrail in place were broken in spots. Going back this month – Probably the racing and everything else is great. =================================================== What did you watch? About 20 laps of Nascar throughout the entire cup race. Nice to see an outsider win. The rain caused a long delay to start the race. If not for the delay, I would probably have watched a lot more of the race. Rain screwed up the whole race on Sunday.
