Live from the PA Dutch Classic at Maple Grove

[Dave Casey]

Greetings from the beautiful , well manicured Maple Grove Raceway. Can not beat this time of the year in PA Dutch country, foliage is peak and this place looks great.

If you are coming to this event from the east on I78, I would suggest avoiding 222 if it is at a busy time of day, better to go farther on 78 and come down 61 to the beltway. 222 is just congested, and Sunday on the way out it could be worse.

There is some rain in the forecast, but we may do ok as the worse is scheduled for the night time Friday. It is chilly tonight, currently (10 pm) 41 degrees. I would much rather be cool, then a year or 2 ago when we were sweating our butts off.

For myself , it is all about tradition at this event, it is a joy to attend. It has it all, fast conditions most years, great facility, class eliminations, Hemi challenge and end of the year fun. Don't expect a lot of posting of Q sheets or pics from me, but I will try to post some stuff .Test and Tune tomorrow , starts at 11 or 12

Thanks Dave, I won't be there this year due to work obligations which really sucks; but it is what it is. I hope everyone has a great time!

Good evening all,

Lots of racers testing today, it stayed in the mid to low 60's. Steady headwind and the barometer was not that great for what we expect. I just took a ride by the teardown barn and it was empty. Some may have been set, and they may be doing teardown tomorrow. The place is filling up slowly, still plenty of room, a steady stream of rigs coming in this afternoon and evening. It will be busy tomorrow.

Sorry to hear you are not going to make it Bill, our best to you

Appreciate the updates Dave.
