Weekend Review: Sept 24

Posted on September 26, 2016 by Sue Brumm

Well, we only have results from the USAC comps right now, but that alone is pretty exciting, since in the past it has taken over a week to get USAC comp results, if you got them at all. We’ll see if they can keep up this excellent turnaround time for the whole season!
