Now in the next year or two a guy will say he met a guy at the track and I will have to remember who it was. Thanks Kev, it's hard enough remembering anything.  LOL  Did he work for the truck team?


Georgetown, pits as crew.   First time to Georgetown after the improvements, WOW, they did a great job. They took down the 37 telephone poles down the front stretch and put up a nice fence, a little higher would be nice, but very safe now. (When you get used to fences like New Egypt and Wall, anything lower feels wierd.)


The surface was good, not great. It got a little rough off the corners, but I really thing that is the result from the left side panhards. Give them a little push because there was a lot of rain the day before. Some dust, but not annoying dust that clouds up, just feels like sand landing on you. Hard to explain.  The forecast was not favorable race day, but they stuck it out and I think it effected the front gate. It was not the usaul crowded Georgetown.


Brett runs a nice show. Fast enough and never have to try to figure out what is going on. The announcers arevery good and they play them in the pits, which is bad because when the woman is calling for heats all you hear is a high pitched blah, blah, blah.


The Modified feature was very entertaining. Lead changes between Stew and Godown were good with Sheppard lurking in third. We saw an old Stewie type win, start 7th, work his way to the front running where they are not, which is usually the top. That's kind of been missing the last two years. Good as a team being in Victory Lane again, it's been awhile. We are called his Mid Atlantic Crew with Rich and Wendy Laubenstein, Tom Belmont, and myself. Stew has missed most of the races in our area this year due to rain or NASCAR stuff, so it was fun!
