TPS NEWS:

 

Texas Pro Sedans major Sponsor Janet's Cakery has posted some serious money which will be added to the March 23 TPS Purse and increase it about 20%.

 

David Mackey has suggested that TPS cars arrive early at the CCS gate on March 23 before it actually opens at 5:00pm. This will help all concerned with first of season race technical inspection and will produce more track time for TPS cars instead of completing entry paperwork and being inspected.

 

A reminder: TPS Discount Motel Travelodge Corn Products Rd, I-37, exit #5, NIGHT GUARD & VIDEO, 2-4 persons, new rate $55. Free Continental Breakfast 6-9am. When making reservations @ new # 888/567-1344, mention special TPS rate.

 

Btw: In case you may have missed it, the April 6th Race Bulletin for Central Texas Speedway has been UPDATED. The Texas Pro Sedans have been elevated from an afternoon class to the evening schedule and will be featured with the Late Model, Modified and the Truck classes. Check out the updated April 6th TPS Race Bulletin at CTS which is posted here on Speed Zone.

Tell you what ill ride with you ..now that would be something of a sight to see start selling the tickets ...if the distributor wasnt worn out and the rear springs would agree with what i want them to do .i promise the car would be there ...so ill have to sit this one out .no need in parking it during the race like the last three races ..but ill give you a race when i make it there ..you can bet on it ..... besides the distributor showed its ugly face with joshua behind the wheel...which is what we were out there for ............ as for his car .. i just work on it here and there ..he tells me what it is doing and i try to fix it . you know duct tape .a few tie straps /and a half inch wrench...other than that he does really well with very little input..he has been around racing all his life and paid attention .. [ surprise]] to what others say .even learning from you ..
