I know a few of the racers out there would much rather it be Thurs-Sat. Might help the sled count too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Wilks is one of the drivers. I figured they would place well but didnt expect them to get the pole. Nice work Team 21. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No desire to race it or stand outside for 10 hours to watch it. Herfindahl/Selby win on a Cat, Bunke/Christensen second, Davidson/??? third.

To race it, you can just as well write off a whole week. No thanks! 13 minutes ago, racer254 said: Got a lot of friends running. The last 25 was pretty good. Probably some of the same people I know too. Tuned in with 40 or 50 to go and the wife was giving me FB updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the best guys that you'll every meet, and that's the biggest problem they talk about, a whole week is gone.

Zambroski Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 A week is just too long. I get the history and the pageantry but it can be shortened up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
