I'd noticed that as well, for at least the last two (possibly three) banquets it's either been snowing, snow on the ground, about to snow or even raining. This is a welcomed change.
Anyone driving their Corvettes to it?

Waddya Mean By That "Old Man" ....Hell I was able to walk out under my own power at the end of the evening & ................

After Collecting my 4th place Finish $$$ "AND a nice Cristal for 7 First Round Wins !!

I tried to talk Jeanne into driving my car for a "FEW" selected races No CC Races! .. maybe have her kick Azzz with the Imports... Those guys will think she is a "Duck" "hehehe" until she goes to the 4th or 5th round...

But you can rest assured that I WILL BE DRIVING IN ALL THE CC RACES ..
