It's tough to select race dates, I am sure Norris certainly did not mean to conflict with any other races when he selected that date for a race at Coopers.

Especially when the Norris' track is in NC, and the WDRA race is in NY, I am pretty sure he didn't figure that there would be many racers torn between the two.

Regardless of where the racers choose to run that weekend, they will be guaranteed a great race! :thumbsup:

If there is anyone thinking of coming april 4 that has not raced at s&H yet it is welll worth the trip. Great smooth fast red clay surface like racing in the south with a shorter drive. Anyone needing to know how to get there or other question go ahead and ask S&H has a friendly fun group of club racers ready to help out.

As you know Science and Hobby is hosting the WDRA event on Saturday the 4th; please see earlier post. This will include EDM, Sprint, and Late Model classes.

Due to this the Sunday race program will be limited to Novice, and Slash classes. Any questions on the Sunday Program should be directed to Kyle, as he is coordinating.

This way you won't have to choose and you will be part of the best racing possible for your class.

See Ya......................At The Track
