Title: 2008 Nationals
Post by: RickyBobby on November 19, 2007, 03:04:51 pm

Looks like they are in MN.  Should be good for getting more cars from the west and the Great White North

Aren't they at Elko Speedway up there?  Also, any talk of where the dirt nationals will be?  I'd love to have them here in Missouri again.

Dirt will probably stay in Missouri again, but there were some rumblings that it may move up here to Wisconsin, although I doubt it since the fire @ Charter Raceway Park last year.

I was hoping for something a little more central.  Does anyone know much about this track?

Nothing about the track on the website, they had 1 Legends race there last year... ??? Hopefully it's a nice facility.

They had at least 3 races there  last year.  I went to two of them. It's a nice track. Not sure if its a big 1/4 mile or a 3/8 mile. Central PA Legends  series had the races there. They have a web site maybe you can get more info from there.

I was just going off of their website:
http://www.bigdiamondraceway.com/
Which only shows one Legends race there last year, but according to Central PA, they did run there 3 times.Whats the track like? Banked? Wide? What kind of facilities do they have? My wife's all excited to go this year, she has Family in the Pittsburgh area... :'(
I've heard nothing but great things about the PA group, they're supposed to be one of the top dirt contingents around. I'm excited, it'll be our first real racing travel...if only I could skip the family stuff we'll be doing there!

We raced there last year just once, but a real nice facility. It's in the middle of nowhere but that doesn't matter too much. ( unless the wives want to go shopping) It's a banked track with plenty of racing room. No fence on the back stretch so if you go off coming off the turn you can come back on no problem.  Fast track!

If they have the dirt in PA they should have great car count. I counted 44 cars at one race this year.
That was more then at the Nats. this year.
