What do you expect with the type of people down there?

My buddy wanted to go because he had such a good time at SAR but I knew it would be a waste to go to this one.

the organizers of the event are really trying to tame the **** down...last i heard was if you werent racing, you had to park in the back parking lot and not the pits. they were also upping the police attendance. unfortunately people dont know how to act and eventually it will lead to royal purple raceway telling the truckers to **** off and find somewhere else to race for their annual g2g. when this happens all of "that croud" will end up at SAR and get it shut down
