What happened this time???????????
Where did this information come from?? It is still on the 08 schedule.
Just checked the schedule again and it's on there now. What's up with that?
See the thread in the MARRS scheduling forum. They aren't coming; they claim it is cancelled as well.
Say it ain't so, Joe. Say it ain't so.
Steve, what's the official response from CCR? I had heard elsewhere that it was cancelled, that's why I was watching the schedule.

The version of the tentative schedule that was posted just prior to 11/1/07 (I believe it was dated 10/26 or close to that) showed the event as being cancelled (ie. there was a strike through it). It no longer appears that way in the current version of the tentative schedule.Quote:

Interesting...as of a couple of weeks ago that event was showing as "canceled" on the tentative SEDiv schedule.
We northerners just found it interesting at our last CC meeting that both that event and the Mother's Day NCR event at VIR were listed as SARRC/MARRS even though we had not committed to attending either.
Deleted because Gregg beat me to it.
Sorry Gregg, did not mean to misquote you.
I just spoke with our RE (Mark Senior). He is well aware that VIR May is NOT a MARRS event; I think all of us here in NCR are a bit saddened by that but understand some of the reasons for it. I suspect the listng on the schedule of SARRC/MARRS is a typo.
Steve E. - what is the official word on Lowe's?
Maybe my computer was looking at a cached version.
And as for the June Jam date, that does now conflict with the 12hrs at the Point. That is because once the decision not to head on down to Lowes was made, the MARRS 2 date, was swapped with the original date (May 30/31) so that all of the Summit MARRS events fall at the end of the month.Quote:

Bear in mind people that these schedules were submitted in June at the mid year meeting and had to reflect the regions plans. Both the VIR and Lowes events were being talked about as MARRS points events. MARRS has made the decision to play at home this year for various reasons so they will not be points races for them. We are sorry as this would have been a great crossover. We look forward to working with them in the future. The Lowes race is still on the schedule for now. Will let you know if that changes so we can skip the speculation.
I (as in my opinion and not an official position of either the WDCR BoD or the competition committee) think that MARRS and Charlotte Motor Speedway won't mix as long as all of the racing takes place on Sunday after noon. I could be wrong about this, but I think this would be a major sticking point for MARRS agreeing to race, as a series, at thie venue.Quote:

If, however, some of the races were held on Saturday night............ The place has lights, doesn't it? IT and SS cars have lights, don't they? :P
Now I would MAKE that trip ;)Quote:

The plan was to run into Sat. night under the lights. We still might if other plans work out. :PQuote:

What the hell is with "WE"? You got a mouse in your pocket, and the last damn time I looked, VA is below the Mason- Dixon line! (which I've pissed on many a times) ;) I also had to laugh that Butch Kummer mentioned that Norther yankee carpet baggers stole the runoffs. Now I'm from Pennsylvania and I'm a damn yankee/ northerner. :D
Nah, to be a "damn yankee" you'd have to live down here. Yankees that stay up north don't make us no nevermind. But we ain't got much truck with them what stays down here. :DQuote:

.... Now I know why I have such a hard time getting along with you guys (Or should I say Ya'll) down here.....LOLQuote:

Well, technically, it's Y'all. But it's pretty humorous to be a stickler about an abuse of language like that. :PQuote:

:023: Cool. NASA did a night race there back in 02 and it was AWESOME!
One word of warning, while the oval is very well lit, the infield is dark as hell. NASA had lighting which lit the track, but it was very hard to see the corner workers.
Make sure you guys have enough light for the track and to light up the corners so drivers can see the flags and workers.

Yes, "youse guys" is much less an abuse of language. :D
Actually "ya'll" as a contraction for "you all" to differentiate from a singular "you" is grammatically correct as long as the speaker is addressing more than one person.
Sorry, I couldn't resist. :D
Down my way, we talk like this:
Sneep dribbledrabbum! Uk ok mangoduh slipshimop. Malswink, comloplop sa robbleriddag.
Hey Jeff, my father was from Dunn, NC, and he nevah tawlked like tha'at.

..... I worry about you sometimes. You been sniffin the coon dung again.
..... Save it for later, it's to early in the day for the scuppernong .... (yeah I know about that high fullutin stuff, Take a trip never leave the farm) B)
Coon dung is good for the soul! Aswiphansa meecmalop. Riteslipe con snuggunbuggum.
Man I miss me some Boone's Farm. Had to stop drinking that shit at age 18. After that, allegedly too old and too mature for wino wine.
The last time I drank Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill, um, competively I was bounced from the local bar. Seems I was singing that Achy Breaky Heart Song at full volume, but changing the word heart to a word sometimes used as a nickname for Richard.Quote:

Man I hated that song.
Mad Dog 20-20 was the only way to go.
and it came in several flavors for each day of the weekend!
Orange Jubilee!
A sort of lime green mush!
Traditional grape for Sunday morning!
A couple of years ago I was invited to a dinner and when I offered to bring something wine was requested. As a joke I also brought a bottle of Mad Dog. That crap tasted like grape juice and Golden Grain mixed together. It was undrinkable.
I poured it out and kept the bottle only to refill it with some good wine for the next party joke.
MD Orange was right on. It was perfect for riding up and down elevators and picking up chicks.
That other stuff was good too.
"What's the word?"
Thunderbird!
"How's it sold?"
Good and cold!
"What's the price?"
Forty twice!
Then there's "SupperTime Wine Time."
I think we've touched on all the major bouquets. We are indeed connoisseurs.
Pass the Red, White , and Blue. An RWB will clean off my taste buds.
Blue Nun
Cold Duck
Menishevits
Night Train
Many moore to discuss...
But Jeff how could you mention Blue Nun in the same context as MD? Their Liebfraumilch was so much less "full-bodied'" and it had a cork. What fine "drink from the vine" comes without a screw-off top?
I've had it with you effete winetoddlers, I'm gonna go drink my Iron City and maybe I've got a Schlitz left around here somewhere??!
This is true, the Nun may have had a cork. Night Train was a screw on, I am pretty sure.
Iron City ain't bad! We have a bar around here that has a special on Goebbels. The French beer. Tastes like the country.
My step son just moved up to NC near lowes. I would like to race up threre in 08. Are new dates firm? CFR ITS58 :biggrinsanta:
Yea, the French can't make beer, and the Germans can't make wine. Maybe that's why they couldn't get along?
Curious however the French would name a beer after Goebbels, maybe they were just getting even knowing how bad it would be..
Lawnman -- yes, I think we are confirmed for June. Check out www.sedivracing.org. Schedule is there.
GRJones, I guess it is actually spelled Goebel, so not quite the Nazi mastermind analogy we thought. Still odd though.......
