The only thing that I know is you got to run slicks.

  Here's the site

  http://www.thunderbowlspeedway.com/

  I went there tonight (Saturday) but with temps in the high 30's turnout was down. The track however is fast, I suspect somewhere around 70 mph and alot of fun powersliding through the entire corner like a Sprint. Tire rule applies, Hoosiers, American Racers, etc. are req'd. Race is every Sat but points are counted every other Saturday. Also there is no more racing at the Dade City oval Saturday nights. Anyone know of any other roundy round tracks is Fl?

 Hey Quad32X,

     I checked the Thunderbowl website again. The next points night is Jan 21 but they told us they run quads every Sat.  Which weekend are you going and I will try to pass it on to the regular gang that ran DC?

I  would  say  the  next  time  they  have  points.  Will  get  with  GASGAS  and  see  what  he  says. ;)
