@scottgarrity07- no disrespect intended but I would be surprised if even half that many cars show up this weekend. I've been to about 8 shows in the last 6 months there and each time the car count has been disappointing. Just a couple weeks ago they had a PS/SS double header and barely had 12 cars between the 2 classes.
They have been advertising $1100 to win and have been asked numerous times on both here and facebook what the rest of the payout is and they still won't answer- now thier website is down. How can they expect guys to show up if they don't even know if they can make tow money running in the top 5?

I talked to Aaron last week at citrus, he told me he was coming. I will be there and Mike Stalnaker will be in our 2nd car.

It's an optimistic line up, for sure. But the's no reason to think they all can't make it, because they can. If they want to.

I look at it like this. Ellisville is a great racetrack. Now you can complain about the purse, the car count, the crowd, the tech, etc. and not show up as a competitor or fan and guess what, you will have nothing to complain about because the track will be gone. Orlando is going through a similar struggle this year and it will be US RACERS that will decide if these tracks survive or disappear. No matter how many of us show up this weekend for the 75 lapper I will guarantee you this, we will put on a show for the fans that come. True racers come for the race alone and the challenge of a 75 lapper for these cars on a big half mile track will bring out the real racers. Those that DO come, will be there to race.

[Todd Allen]

Not gonna make the trip. Busy week for everyone, haven't had time to get the car ready.

[RSB]

Should start a pool!

For 2nd place finisher.

[Don Nerone]

Damn, my loss...

"We" never had sportsman cars that would run with the 13 car. Still don't.
You work too hard. AND on Saturday night? Bummer.

[Patrick Thomas 25]

I was really trying to have the new car done too surprise everybody and just show up at this race. It just didn't happen, good luck too all the competitors, I hope you run out of parking spots for all the cars. I'll try to make the next one. Aaron can be beat, Prescott won a Southern Sportsman race there, it can happen.

[RSB]

I'll be pulling for Jeff, but I remember the last race when the 13 would start on the outside of Jeff on the restarts. Passing Jeff on the outside ain't easy and Aaron did it two or three times.
Patrick, if you show up my first pick could change...
