Two have reached out already. If you’re interested on a Oklahomatidbits decal or three at Hutch on Saturday, I’ll be driving around the pit area well-before motor heat. If interested, stop me as I drive by. Black 2021 Trail Boss, you can’t miss it. They are free but donations accepted.

The projected drivers for this weekends High Limit Racing two-night event at Kokomo Speedway. I know, this is not in my coverage area but I’m using this as an example for the following question.

Does the “projected drivers” list that series are starting to compile entice you to attend or not attend or are you more than likely going to attend, no matter what?

I believe Brian Walker with HL got the ball rolling on compiling these lists and, for me, I think it’s very beneficial. I’m glad to see more series starting to use this concept.

What say you?

If you’re going to chop the watermark on my photos of your car, at least acknowledge who took the photo. If not, I’ll make sure to not take a photo of your car in the future and tell my fellow photogs what you do.

I know my photos suck but they are my sucky photos and I take a little bit of pride from them.
