Mr. King I will be there too. I will take the leave from you. What do you think? Is it a race? I forgot I'm talking about the leave from your tow truck.

We plan on coming as well.

Did yall get your issues fixed with the burned meter base on the power pole that feeds the ticket booth and the rest of the timing system?

Your absolutely right! I looked at it Sunday night. Was trying to figure out a way for us to have some power. Just didn't have my high voltage gloves with me. Now we will just have to wait for the power company to come and set the meter.

Default Gamblers race
I know it's last minute, but it seems as if Sunday is looking pretty good weather wise. If there is enough interest, we will have a gamblers race this Sunday along with the Fast Ford Shootout. Track will throw in a few dollars to the purse. @ Chillerman, I never imagine something so simple could be so difficult. Had to get parts, permit and wait on SCE&G to come out. Hope we never see that problem again!

Unfortunately the power company had already taken the meter out and did not notify track officials of their actions. They discovered the issue not until Sunday afternoon. They didn't have a choice but to get a permit, since it required isolating the power source or unless the electrician did it hot.
