Okay folks we a moving into our fifth week of racing and I think we are off to a very good start, but there are still some minor bumps in the roads we are seeing.....

Therefore I am asking this.....

I ask that all of you review the NASCAR Pool Rules and Regulations (see link below) before we start the next race on March 20th. I will assume that you have read the rules by thanking this post.

Please understand that I an not trying to single any one out, just trying to help things run smoother.

I hope you are enjoying the pool,
DD
