how far is too far? Ocala is dirt, ~35 miles and runs Friday night. racing starts at 8pm.
Columbia is paved, ~45 miles and runs Saturday. racing starts at 7:30pm.

North Florida and Citrus could also be options.
Thanks
Yeah thats not to Far I may hit both if I can this weekend.
Citrus a Little Far
If I were you…
I would make sure I made it to North Florida Speedway in Lake City. It’s about 30 miles from G’ville. They’ve got the UDLMS there this sat. Always a good show. Other classes have pretty good car counts too.
CMP is only $8 but the car counts are HORRIBLE. Sorry CMP…just say’n!

personally i would drive the extra miles and be at citrus saturday by 5:30 pm . awesome car counts .
Friday’s show at Ocala should be good. The Top Gun Sprint series and the Florida mini sprints will be there. I’ve got so I really enjoy the mini-sprints at Ocala. They always seem to put on a good show. The sprints are awesome also.
Saturday’s choice for me would be the UDLMCS at North Florida. But, if you’re a die hard asphalt fan, you might not want 2 nights of dirt. LOL

Yep, he’s a luck guy in that respect!
You should definitely hit Ocala Friday night for the Top Gun Sprints and the Florida Mini Sprints. That’s always a good double bill.
Thanks Guys
For the advice I think i am going to try a double header weekend.
Ocala Friday night for my dirt fix
and CMP Saturday for my Asphalt fix, Citrus is a lil far and I do go there for open wheel race’s never make it to CMP so being this close I should atleast check it out.

Glad to hear that you’re gonna pay us a visit at C.M.P. sunshinestate. It’s always good to get to meet another board member. The Nickel & Dime race team will be there with all 3 cars. The #39 pure stock, #76 V8 bomber, & the #46 hornet which happens to be my wife;). It should prove to be an interesting night of racing. Bombers & hornets have double points and money races and the pure stocks have 2 features. Not to mention, Diamond Jim is bringing out the #15 Busch Grand National car for some ride alongs. :ernaehrung004: We’ll see you guys Saturday!
