I Hope They Fix The Rock Problem They Always Had Up There. They Need To Knock The Backstretch Wall Down And Make The Turns More Sweeping.

I belive there is a new surface at UCS and that should eliminate the rock problem. As for the back strech wall most of the people that I talked to that were there during its heyday loved how tight the corners were forcing drivers to back it in instead of just keeping it straight the entire time. I hate tracks that are mirrors of other tracks and apploud any track willing to stay different.

I think anyone that supports this track in '08 will be plesently suprized

The Lm's Put On A Lousy Show Up There Because There's Very Little Passing. Use To Run Up Ther In The Mid 80's And You Finished Where You Started Unless Someone Slipped Up In The Corner. There Were A Few Descent Sprint Shows When Ferkel And Fred Linder Where Runnin Up There Weekly. Good Luck To Tom And Crew......

You are right Smith19 about passing being at a premium but that was in the mide 80's when the Late model guys respected each other now they just do like they do every where else and drive thru each other. It really has become sickening and made me more of a sprint fan.
