I might make the drive to Ebensburg. Who else is driving up?

**Killercanary** · 08-19-2006, 10:20 PM

I'll be there with the wife's go-cart... AKA her MR2. I was hoping to have my car done and racing this weekend, but I ran out of time as I just got home from vacation.

Maybe 30 minutes haaa, didnt want to take the beater, talked to a buddy of myne he took his car, he said it was packed with people and he said there was a few hundred cars present.

Well, I didn't race but man it was a great time. They had to cut off the amount of race cars at 200, and that happened at around 4:30!!! There was OVER 4000 spectators according to the announcer. Traffic was backed up from McDonalds to the entrance of the track which is easily a mile. They were blown away with the turbout and I'd be VERY surprised if this didn't become a more regular event. It was INSANE. Honestly, I don't know where in the hell all of these people came from. Everyone I talked to there were in awe at the turnout.

The anouncer said that they were told there wasn't a market for this here and they didn't expect much of a turnout... he said they were definitely wrong on that one!!!

Nope, no pics here. I flew in to Pittsburgh from Aruba on saturday, and hit the FLD's on the way home. My camera card was full of vacation pics so I was unable to grab any of the races. :(
