Attention Racers!
We would like to ask all of our modified competitors to please return your Modified Tour Survey forms to Pam Baker as soon as possible. The forms were distributed to the teams that raced at Lernerville for the final race and others were mailed out to the racers who did not enter that program. We would like to have as many responses as we can get before the next board meeting. Thanks.
