I figure you already knew it:
24Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.
Darn skippy!
Plenty of room for 60 plus cars on anything over a mile or mile and a half, no problem there. Regularly watch 20-25 cars on a quarter mile.
Generally, I've got an eye on Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne and Bobby Labonte. I expect big things out of Montoya, but maybe not for a year.

24Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. I do know it. I also like to think on Hebrews 12:1-2 when I think on I Cor 9:24. I was just guessing that you didn't want me to quote it for you. Plenty of room for 60 plus cars on anything over a mile or mile and a half, no problem there. Regularly watch 20-25 cars on a quarter mile. Is this regarding Bristol? In my question I was wondering what cars are driven there since USAC cars haven't yet made an appearance. And what is a USAC car? Generally, I've got an eye on Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne and Bobby Labonte. I expect big things out of Montoya, but maybe not for a year. Okie-dokie. I still don't know what "having fenders on it on payday" means.

Not "have fenders on it on payday" It means he's a fan of "open wheeled racing". Sprint, etc. Smaller venues, truer, grittier, Joe Torque-Wrench, type racin'. So when You get off work on Friday "payday" , you head to the track, and have some fun.

Little video mix of 2007 Dirt Cup. We sit between 3 and 4 and are generally covered with dust by the time it's all over. Skagit's the best because this place is a mile or so down the road http://www.avalonlinks.co...asp?id=393&page=10470

Are that many roll-overs typical? Nice looking golf course.

It's a terrific golf course. The only issue is parts of it (notably the North Course) don't drain terribly well, so early spring golf can be iffy. The greens weren't very good last time I played it (August), which was really unusual, so I'll chalk it up as just one of those things.
I've seen everything from nobody upside down to seems like somebody upside down in every race (min. 8 heats, 3 mains) so it's kind of hard to quantify 'typical'.

You can ask Kev all about courses with sub-par drainage. Like hole 2 at an Oakdale course, right Kev? I would suppose that would be one of the aspects that makes racing interesting?

That's why they run the race, to see what's going to happen...

You mean they shouldn't just simulate each race?
