    Martinsville is a 1/2 mile paved? hhhmmm....makes a guy think. Our local dirt 1/2 milers are holding 15.235 and 15.255 respectively for their records and plain janers runs real close to that even in the 360 classes. Not saying sprinters are the same class but they have no budget either.
    What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?

    Not a quiz.
    The reason I asked is because I know that different tracks have different class's.
    So can you please tell me what class it is??

    I guess what I was asking is this Busch,NASCAR,IMCA etc.??
