September 6, 2012

I will be at Thunderhill Raceway this Saturday evening, September 8, to bring you the Umscheid Race Services Live, Interactive Updates from the tight 3/8-mile paved oval in Kyle, Texas.

As the season starts to wind down, the drivers will be doing whatever it takes to move up the point standings as the championship battles heat up.

Nothing takes the place of being at the track in person, but if you just can’t get to the track, I will try to bring you lap-by-lap coverage of the entire racing program. I plan on firing up the blogging software around 6:00 p.m.

You will be able to make comments and ask questions during the blogcast, but there will be a delay between the time you post and the time it actually shows up in the dialogue box. That’s because I have to approve all posts and sometimes I get too busy trying to keep up with all the on-track action to handle the comments in a timely manner.
