Yes, you can camp at the track, but there are no hook-ups or shower facilities.  Also, we met with the track officials and there is a grader and water truck and the track can be relocated at any time if it rains.  A small oval track will be constructed using part of the front straight of the existing track and will be about 180 feet.  The track is running their weekly Friday night car racing this week as well, so anyone coming in Friday night will be parked in an area until the racing is over, and then relocated to our designated area.  I'd like to get an idea of how many racers are coming.  Thanks everyone!

Wow--we made it through our first USLMRA WV race!! Even though there was rain in the forecast all weekend, the skies remained sunny and shined on our racers both days! There are SO many people to thank--First, to Connie and Jim Skidmore and their ENTIRE staff at the Elkins Raceway. On Thursday, the entire track and pit area was under water from flooding from torrential rains on Wednesday, but Jim and his crew worked very hard to get our track ready. During race weekend, Jim and Tim Ashe kept working the track to make it the best they could and their efforts are greatly appreciated. Many thanks to Kerry Evans, Chrissy and Richard Webb and their staff of the USLRMA for their hard work and SUPPORT! Thanks to the racers who made the trip and for their kind works and support. Luckily no ropes, chains or "body part" spreaders were necessary (inside joke!).  We had racers from Michigan, Ohio, Maryland, Illinois,....they traveled quite a distance to come share the weekend with us, and I hope they all had a good time. There were a few tumbles, but luckily no injuries!  On a personal note, many thanks to Tim Coberly, Mike McSpadden and James Biller for helping Danny with his three mowers this weekend. Even though he lost a transmission in the SP mower, he had a good showing--and now is 4th in points in the GP class; 4th in the CP class; and 13th in the SP class--NOT BAD FOR HIS ROOKIE SEASON!!!! We are looking forward to seeing everyone again at the season finals in Delaware, OH in two weeks. Thanks again--Sarah
