Yes your right WATTIE that does sound like a good day of racing for 20 bucks..You most def will see me sittin in turn 3 barring any unforseen circumstances.. Should be interesting with the Sportman cars seeing the New Sunset for the first time..They seem to be getting 20 car fields this year with some impressive newcomers in Doerr and Balson to challenge the grizzled vets like Conolly, McGlynn, Didero, and Wood..I can remember in 2004 the Sportmans going 100 caution free at Barrie, and it only took about 18 mins to complete.. Dilley won that race ironically enough..Not that I forcast 100 caution free laps this time around however..
I had originally thought "The Prince's" challenge was to take place this Sunday as well, but popular intelligence now tells me that race wont occur till August's Summer Slam event.. I know Jimmy isnt running the Stefco Series on a full time basis.. Maybe "His Majesty" can come on here and clarify for himself?? I dont believe anyone from the Sunset Super Stocks has even accepted the challenge yet either??? Sure hope 10-12 of the Sunset Super Stocks are planning on running Sunday cause that series seems to be attracting 19-20 cars as the norm and could use all the home track cars it can get.. Seems 8 Sauble cars will be running the series full time, along with maybe 3 or 4 Sunset cars.. As far as I know Thayne is the only Barrie Thunder I'd pencil in for sure, but maybe the other front runners like Belesky and Burrage will make their Stefco Series debuts at Sunset as well??? I'm sure youll see 2 or 3 Flammy and Varney guys wanting to try Sunset for the 1st time and that should make for a stellar field even if they only attract 22-24 cars.
