1. Mother Nature was the big winner in this area, taking the checkered at Attica, Eldora, Moler, and other tracks. It's that time of year where the weather is warm and, for the most part, perfect during the week then cold and miserable on the weekends. Check out the local forecast for the next five days and you'll see what I mean.
2. Typically a UMP stalwart, Rusty Schlenk opted to race at an unsanctioned Late Model track Saturday night. The former UMP National Champion headed to Brownstown Saturday evening, despite Twin Cities racing UMP sanctioned Late Models less than 30 miles away from Schlenk's destination.
3. We've been hearing good things about Brad McCown's Jackson County Speedway. The car counts have continued to rise from week one, and word is the racing has been pretty good too.
4. Crooksville, Ohio's Midway Speedway swung open the gates Friday night under the direction of Jerry Perrine. Although the car counts were low and the weather was cold, a hat tip is certainly in line for Perrine who's track was one of the select few that got to race this weekend.
5. It wasn't just the high car counts that made the NDRL debut spectacular, but the quality of cars at both Paducah and I-55 was off the charts. If this is what we can expected from John Kennedy's upstart series, I think we're all in for a treat.
