We cannot thank all the teams and their families and fans for the support they showed this Thanksgiving weekend. With the two series coming together once again, the racing was excellent. And again, none of this would be possible without the huge support from all the sponsors to come together each week to make these events happen …Thank You ..

Hope to see everyone at the Great Lakes banquet on Saturday, November 23rd!
