thats cool i did norwalk last year it was fun except for the 100degree day fri and sat i dont know about the other pinks allout races but they would not take care of the track i think it was because they didnt want any breakage but it was a good time anyway

The track should be in pretty good shape we have a double race the saturday before and no test n tune before pinks all out. There are alot of pits with power but if you got a generator i would bring it. It's probably first come first serve on pit spots i would guess.

131 is the next best thing to Norwalk around here for sure, IMO track is better at 131 pits better at Norwalk. Norwalk wins the icecream battle though :D


Maybe 75 power spots at 131 ? Sure the local boys will fill them fast though.

:D :D The power spots are assigned to regular racers they pay dues for the spots and will probably be either roped off or reserved for them, will need to bring a generator if you need power cause you will be out with me in the boonies at the end of the track near the return road good thing they updated the whole facility a couple years ago very nice track to run down, fast too :wink: :wink:

Big deals like this is no resvere deal them spots are only guarnteed for points races and regular weekly races. Div/Nat Events and other big races that do not have the regular program arent reserved spots.

I'd rather park in the middle of BFE anyways, but do NOT want to park on the opposite side of the track.

i was just wondering my motorhome has a generater but some of my buddys dont parking at norwalk was we got there at 8am when the gates open they staged us by number as we came into the track so you will pit beside the guy in front and behind you that way pinks knows where you are incase they need you there were no exceptions so if your going with friends make sure you come in all together no saving spots at least thats the way pinks ran it at our track looking forward to racing at us131 for the first time should be a great time

Hammertime,i don't think there will anyone pitted on the (other) west side. I think they can pit close to 700 racers on the side we normally pit on. Besides most entries will be pickups & trailers. Not many big rigs with 53' stackers i wouldn't think.

Well unfortunately most of the reg's going to run Pinks All Out will probably be up the Friday night before just so they will be able to get their usual spots and David does know this and they will....but that is ok it just the fun of meeting new people with the same passion :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

i spoke to dave about two weeks ago he said he will open the gates on thursday to make the pitting a little easier they cant be that crowded there is only 500 cars max thats if everyone shows you talk about crowded ive raced at my home track norwalk with 1400 race cars as far as getting there friday make sure you there early enough to get your two time runs if you miss your call. your bumming because they wont let you make it up pinks actually takes the track over for the weekend especially the track surface christianson runs the show so dont be surprized if your short times are way off
