I'm interested in a track rental.

Dennis, do you have any idea how many Friday nights etown will run this year?

I might give Sundays a shot but if it is anything like the old days Sundays are way too much for me to handle.

Hi, I have never raced on Sundays, just curious what you mean by "the old sundays" ? Too crowded ?

I can remember getting time trials at 10 am and then first round at 3 or 4pmpm. And pitting way out by Pension road. And some VERY serious money racers. Way more intense than I liked and too long of a day, but maybe things have changed??

I ran a few Sundays last season and it is different. Super would get 8 lanes of cars. Those days are gone. The day is over by 4pm/5pm. Car count has dropped on Sundays as it did on Saturdays.

Yes, open pipes but only after 10 a.m. (including on and off trailers, or driving to tech or warmup in pits). Afternoon curfew is 7:30 p.m. so all racing and open pipe cars must be gone by then. The past few years with 4 car and motorcycle & Test-N-Tune (at $100 per card) have been done and out by 5 p.m. (most employees say they are home eating by 5 p.m.)

As of the last talk, they had not finished the Friday schedule so I can't say for sure. One thing for sure, they did not plan on racing every Friday, and what days they are planning will be split (ex: 10 nights....5 ratchet and 5 regular racing) with the past ratchet Fridays, I've been told.

Just realized what was going on when I printed the form. (No emails or mention on the web site, thanks RP). I've got a lot of thinking to do, but I think I'm with Mr. H.
