Thinking back on this past weekend, the only way I can describe the end of another West Coast Nationals event is: The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. Drivers and spectators travel from all corners of the United States to try to tame the 1/10 mile track, which we affectionately call ‘The Bull Ring.’ For those who tasted victory it was a wonderful weekend, and yet most drivers who qualified, unfortunately, were drinking from the challis of defeat. … Continue reading →

the 11th points race was certainly full of drama, caused by the weather. We have no control over it, but I was happy to hear that the racing action had been postponed, in order to allow several drivers the opportunity to arrive in time for qualifying.
