Re: "Live From" Maple Grove D1 LODRS
Everyone was asking last weekend "Whats up with car counts?" I heard from Chad at Cecil and he said they were below 300 total and it wasn't a good weekend in their books....I joked and said just imagine if you had it in August with the rising fuel costs, he was like you know you might be correct.
I think this weekend will be the true test to see how car counts will be, you'll have your diehards that will be there rain or shine, $2 a gallon or $8 a gallon but, it will be a judge to see where things come out in total car counts. This is normally a 550 to 600 car count event. Also, have to remember this event hasn't been run in over 2 years on this weekend, 2 years ago COVID moved it to the Dutch Weekend in September and we went 1/8 mile racing due to rain and last year was 3 days of rain and they tried to move it to Monday only to have the track not hold rubber and had to be pushed till late August. So we will wait and see what things look like once it's all said and done Sunday Night |

Re: "Live From" Maple Grove D1 LODRS
Hey guys, the test session started late, and it looks to be light, but cars are still coming in. Here a some shots from behind the starting line. Weather wise we are still in good shape for today. Friday does not look good, but the rest of the weekend looks great.

Re: "Live From" Maple Grove D1 LODRS
Good morning and welcome to Day 1 here at Maple Grove --although I can't give you an exact number yet this place is filling up as a bunch came in last evening .
We are to start at nine this AM but it's doubtful as it rained some during the night .That coupled with fact that it's overcast and a bit misty could slow things a bit .Good news - the temp just hit seventy - the weathermen promised warm temps this weekend .Later....
