Wow Keystone is going all in this week trying to get some cars down the track.
We hope all of the mothers out there were well honored and celebrated yesterday. We just wish one Mother (Nature) would stop beating us like a rented mule this season. You want to race, we want to race, and she is looking like she wants to exert her influence on this coming weekend too. We’re going to try and trick her by adding a Snyder’s Performance Engineering test and tune on Thursday. This will be dependent on how much rain we get Tuesday and Wednesday. The pattern so far this season has been we just start to dry out, then we get turned into a swamp again. We will update on Thursday if we are able to run that night, so please check back. We will do everything we can to get Friday and Saturday in, if the weather permits us.
