Default Re: Hillbilly Racing Team: week in review

Dennis, yeah..a long weekend, but well worth it, both the Whitehall Reunion and going to Newport.

It takes a little while to get used to how they run things at Newport, but once you get used to their system, no big deal.

Another interesting thing they do at Newport...Anyone who has ever been on a racer's board, or around racers much, know how racers can be when it comes to payouts/$$$, sort of like feeding time at the zoo. Well, at Newport, they only pay the winner in each class, but more times then not, before the finals, the two racers will get together, shake hands and agree to split the pot 50/50. Makes for some fun final runs, as usually everyone lets it all hangout, not worrying about breaking out, or redlights, just one final race for bragging rights.
