Just wondering if people stay on one surface.
I'm going to try to fit in some Asphalt fun next year...maybe.

Yeah I was thinking of trying my hand at that also. I was at my first asphalt race 2 weeks ago just to watch. And it looked like a blast. As if dirt ain't. But I would still like to try it. Are the set-ups a lot diffrent then dirt? I just finished my first season and we struggled a bit learning what to do to make the car work. I'm planning on doing a lot of homework in off season to be more competive next season.

 Yes, different set-ups. I was told though than in rain or wet surfaces on asphalt, there are some drivers using my dirt set-up.
The only asphalt I have ever ran was in a thunder roadster. I have no asphalt set-ups of my own, just set-ups others have sent me to try if I do decide to try asphalt

There may be a few shows at Slinger on Sunday Nights, and its only a 2 hour tow for you to Rockford on Wednesday nights.
Just remember Beaver Dam is your home  ;)
I'll drop your parts off tonight at 6:00.
Thanks

I am an Asphalt guy but only because that all we can run around here without driving more than 5 hours to get to a dirt track that runs legends.

Last year we ran races at 4 different asphalt tracks in our series and I was tring to convince the director to add a couple of dirt races to our schedule next year!  I would love to try and run dirt!!!

I would love to be able to race dirt and road course along with our standard asphalt!

Gregg said he might try and look for some dirt next year, we'll see!
