Event results
The day started out gloomy with some early morning showers, but that soon faded away to Sunny Skies. A good number of new and used vendors arrived in hopes of selling some of their goods and the racers were getting ready in the pits for a good day of racing.
For this event, our numbers were extremely low all the way around. I am sure that the rain kept some at home, but we would like to Thank each and every one of you for making the trip and supporting the event. We did some extra advertising in different forms for this event, we don't know where everyone was. If you have any suggestions about how to let folks know. Please let us know. This track is a great facility and we would hate to lose it.
Special thanks go out to the NRVDubbers for all their help with the show, Holeshot Photos for the car show and race photos, Regina Mitchell and Porky Briggs for their assistance.

Well we can't predict what comes, but we always encourage folks to clean out their VW items and come get a swap space.
When it gets closer, will make a list of the parts vendors I know will be there.
Nobody pre-registers for the vendor area, so it is kinda hard to know.
Used Swap Space is only $35 which includes 1 admission. _________________ Kathy Jacobs
