The next race at that track is Sept 26th. Not sure if Aaron is able to make it yet. The track is New Egypt NJ. The web site is not updated yet to show the kind of racing we do. We were promised it would be in a couple weeks.

It is a great proffesional track, they race dirt cars every weekend and modify the track for us on Saturdays ( 3 this year, 0-4or 5 next year. It takes some money to put on the show, so if the 26th race doesnt bring enough spectators, it might not happen next year.

Sept. should bring more racers and spectators though. Alot of people have cometments in the summer.

Well that's one way to ensure you never need to re-paint it I guess. Just "preserve" all the paint by covering it with stickers!

big envelope of cash, that unfortunately didnt outweigh the cost body panels ripped off or the parts broken! but hey we got a sweet trophy
