What teams are coming to thompson

How many do you think will make the trip?

Good question, or more precisely, "who will come out of the woodwork to run as a Southern car?"

Last year's event had 22 drivers, but almost 10 of those were yankees who moonlighted as a southern tour driver for the day.

11 drivers have run all 7 races so far, and 7 more have run 6. Looking at that list of names and comparing it to who came last year, plus the new names who are still in the points race I would think that at least 15 make the trip up this year. Coupled with some of the northern drivers who have least run a few races (Kuiken, Bertuccio), I think there might be a healthy field before a few of the randoms show.

Kuiken has sold all his asphalt modified equipment.

Kuiken has sold all his asphalt modified equipment.

Kuiken would race if he could get a ride, the family-owned team just could not afford to continue.

That's really sad to hear Jill...
