Re: Pinks All Out
WJ,
dad and I raced it with the Superstocker about 2yrs ago in Montgomery. Waste of Time... rush rush rush rush, no preping at all!!! I was glad to say I did it one time, but I would never do it again...

Re: Pinks All Out
We did in '08 in St. Louis and really had a great time! None of us made the final show, but Alex was selected for the Wheelstand Contest and it was between him and someone who almost wrecked for the win - they voted for the moron who almost crashed. Oh well. It was a ton of fun!

Re: Pinks All Out
I have a lot of friends who have been in them. You can not go to it with the attitude that it is a race. It is a sit around alot and then rush up to make your run, then sit. It's a lot more of a party at a race track unless you happen to get picked.
A buddy of mine won Indy last year. (Jerry Hayes-Pro Electric Duster) They paid what they promised, and he has been on TV a ton of times now. |

Re: Pinks All Out
Woodrow, we raced at Z-max last year and Virginia this year. We are registered to race at Bristol in October. It is a lot of fun as Roy Hill and I were talking at Z-Max last year it is like to old match race days. The stands and the pits are packed. 460 - 500 race cars all running for one prize.

Re: Pinks All Out
From what i am being told, they only pick 16 or 32 of the closest runs that are together, and the rest of the 4-5 hundered get to go home?

Re: Pinks All Out
Yep. They had a pinks thing here at Tulsa, many didn't come back the second year. Not many thought much of it here.
