Given the cold weather tomorrow, is there any point in being at the track when the gates open at 9:00 AM? Or should we show up later after the sun has done its thing?
Sure is, thanks.

Good thing about not being the person running the track rental is you can show up whenever you want. I will be there bright and early with nothing to do unless I get spacers that work.

They will be open periodically throughout the day.

Post Good Luck Guys

It's 7 AM and I'm setting in Cape May, NJ with the wife and wishing I was at MIR getting ready to watch "No Holds Barred" racing today.

Someone is gone to smile and somebody's gone to cry after the spanking.

Good Luck, be Safe, Keep us posted, please....
