[BKSG1198]

For those needing fuel at the Dave Stine Race! The Sunoco pumps will not be in operation for that weekend, Jeff Stricker will be on site selling VP Racing Fuels and have all in stock. He told me today that his costs will be very low! He can pump, sell in pails or if you want a bulk delivery, he is taking Pre-Orders so he has enough on hand for you! You can contact him at 717-587-1693 to place your order with him. As far as Sunoco customers you will need to stock up for the weekend before you come!

All .90 racers, Since you will all be paying at the gate for this event to make things easier on Dana & Myself in the lanes, Mike Beard of Staging Light Graphics made up run stickers that MUST be placed on the cars front windshield so we can see what races you are entered in for the weekend. I know we can go check tech cards but, have you ever had to run up and down the tower steps at the Grove 🥵🥵🥵….you find out how out of shape you really are.
We will have a special marking that the front gate that will be marked when you enter the events on the right side. We all would love you to enter all at once when you enter the gate but, If you choose to enter an event down the road you will still go to the front gate to enter & pay and we will be notified by the front gate that you have entered.

[BKSG1198]

Just want to take a moment and THANK all the sponsors who have come on board to help make this race a reality. Most of you know that have talked to me, know the curveball that was thrown at Jeff & Myself about 16 days ago but, we stuck to our guns and made this race happen come h--l or highwater. We really hope you all come out and support this event. I know Indy is the weekend before and the Keystones are the week after but, this is the only race of its kind for the 2022 season, so come out and support this event so we can keep on putting events like this for you in the future!

All the info and flyers...sorry if they are hard to see, have to shrink them to get them to fit on this page.

So, we heard the call that opening the gates at 12 and trying to get in, teched and ready for the High Roller Race by 1:30 was a little impossible. This was the reason for the early parking on Thursday but, that got nixed as they will be trying to prepare for the Nationals. So we will open the gates on Friday at 9:30am, we will kick things off for the High Roller Race at 1pm with Super Street, Super Gas, Super Comp and a special Top vs Top Shootout so the gives you all a good 3 1/2 hours to get in and settled in for the weekend.

Trust me, for those who know me know I am very organized and like to communicate to everyone and work with everyone to make this one of the best races on the East Coast!

[BKSG1198]

The trophies for the .90 classes for next Saturday's big event! Thanks to west coast .90 & bracket racer Travis Theobald for the design.

[BKSG1198]

The week is finally upon us, I feel like just yesterday I was screaming 150 days away! I hope you all come out to support this event, even if it's for one day or all three. We wanted to make this a racer friendly experience that when you roll out the gates on Sunday on the way home that you say, I hope Rob does another one next year!

I will be starting a live from feed probably on Thursday as I plan to get to the track around 3pm, I won't have my sidekick Robbie with us this year who did the live feed from last year's event as Keith said he's "gone fishing". Hopefully Keith, myself or anyone in attendance who wants to jump on and say a few words or share some pics that would be awesome. From what I have been told 2-3 rigs are already parked at the gate waiting to get in.
