That first turn  at Sportsmans was a killer.  I remember when I went to see Continental Victory race there (because I could get my pic in the magic circle still one of my fav pics), Gurfien had her take that turn about a dozen times in warm-ups so she would be used to it.   It should make the races play a bit more fair.  No only if they would put in a passing lane, I could enjoy my final year of Big M play more.

Any guesses on what the first days handle would be?

My guess 5 million.

People have been waiting for this day a long time.

Sorry I made you ill.  My thinking is it would save the embarrassing explanations by drivers as to why they left the rail to let their buddies through. 

My guess as to the first days handle--3.7 million
