Default East Texas Peeps Check In

Seems to be some interest in another play day at the track in Rusk. I was
looking over the test n tune schedule and they are running June 6th. on a
Friday night from 6 pm till 11 pm. This should give everyone time to get
their schedule planned around it and hopefully we can have a good turn
out. Tell your friends to come and bring whatever car they want to run.
Post up if you plan on going..........

Isn't the track in Lufkin a better track than Rusk?

The track in Diboll runs their test n tune with the bracket program on Saturday only during the day and its hot at that time. The Rusk track
runs theirs on Friday night when it starts to cool off and you can run
all you want or have grudge matches. Its alot more fun at the Rusk
track than in Diboll. I think one track is just as good as the other to me.
There will be several of us from Lufkin making the trip........

P.S. This track is located about 5 miles North of Alto on HWY 69. It's
about a 30 minute drive from Lufkin.......
