"Everything is coming together nicely," stated promoter Ray Cook from his
Brasstown, NC shop on Thursday afternoon. "I am really pleased to bring
Ozzie Altman on board to do our announcing. He does an excellent job and he
should add a lot of excitement for the fans. We now have quite a few
contingency sponsors and that will do nothing but make it better for the
racers. There are a lot of people that have been calling and are interested
in running with our series. Some say they can run the first three races and
others are interested in running the last five races. Weather is going to
be a big part of the series. Hopefully, we will get a break in the weather
and the fans and race teams will not have to worry about getting rained
out."
