Default Byron 11/18

Anyone know if the track is going to be open for T&T? Supposed to be partly cloudy and low 50's. I think it would be the perfect end to the season.

Hooking at GLD on a stick has been horrible the last two times there this year. At Byron I was hooking on 3500 clutch dumps with 500lbs of TQ on tap! I was happy as hell. Can't wait til I get my slick setup next spring.
