I agree completely with you Tony.
There were 3 guys doing tech today and the line was flying.

I like to drive around it and back in the water box,But they said you can't do that any more.You don't have to drive through if your not doing a burnout or you have street tires or your doing a dry burnout.I should have explained better ................Paul

It was like last season where I had to swing wide to avoid a little water run-off from the water box...

And the track prep was awsome; a dead hook every time.

The funny thing is most of us dont realize we run at one of the top tracks in the country,I have run at tons of other tracks and none compare to ETOWN.... I admit last week was a little slow but they made up for it today.....

Yes they really did a phenomenol job, we did the afternoon session and had no lines at the gate or tech, PLENTY of water put down regularly and the Index event was run very well...kudos to E-town (and Edgar as always) for job well done.

Agreed, I was going to make this exact same post! Huge difference from last week, they certainly took every bit of our recommendations to heart. Lines, tech, tree, everything was run flawlessly. No complaints here.

Yes, kudos to E-town. A top notch facility.

As an added bonus, for the evening session even though the fields weren't quite full for the index classes, e-town provided the full payout anyway for the 10.0 and 12.0 classes! That was a very generous action!

Thanks Marc, sorry I missed you, I was pretty probably distracted by the mini dachshund in the passenger seat!

Hopefully I'll catch you at the track at some point this season.

Marc, sorry I missed you. Nice to hear the PM was run as smoothly as the AM session. Perfect day of racing... Except they forgot to take the red bulbs out on my runs. DOH!:o
