Wall speedway is a fans course not a drivers course.

Maybe Rhys Millen can chime in, he has had choice words about the track in the past.

I have never been there but have watched tons of tape of it and all I can do is feel sorry for the drivers. So that's all I can really say about that.

Makes sense -- I can definitely see it being a nightmare for the drivers.

Going down to Georgia soon for FD Atlanta, so I'm interested to see what the Road Atlanta competition is like in person. I've only seen it on video, myself.

I sure hope so, since 0 of the top 3 drivers in FD are on your list, and the 2 of your top 10 drivers (Maeng / Whiddett) aren't even top 16 in FD points.

This was a preseason report

Those were my top prospects before the season started. All the non FD drivers on the list are still doing well. Tuerck is in 4th only 52 points from the leader... although I thought he would have a stronger grip of the championship race there is still alot of drifting to be done.

Like I said, mid season and post season report will be alot more direct with the points standings.

The story with Summit Point is seating. Summit Point had no dedicated seating. There was some form of a dispute about FD bringing in temporary bleachers for the event. Summit Point didn't want the bleachers brought in for some reason so FD dropped the event. I guess something has changed since XDC had temporary bleachers this year.
