Our Cowtown workers at the IRL / GRC Races Besides the fun of being at the event, the worker hours volunteered by these workers help to offset the track rental for our September NCCC Event.  If you have an interest to give it a try next November, contact our TMS Coordinators.
The Winstar 400 Weekend was a weekend full of NASCAR Trucks and IRL racing
	They had the jet-driers, the smaller tractors w/pull-behind driers and even sweepers out trying to get the water off the track surface
		On TV and from the stands, the painted grass looks perfect - have you ever wondered if it really was?
	Thru the fence we could see the two White Grand-Sport Corvette Pace Cars in addition to the typical red Camaros
THE NASCAR TRUCK SERIES
	The track was finally dry enough to let the trucks run for a few hours; Sauter was fastest in practice at 181 MPH
Global Rallycross (GRC) Texas Open Heat Races & Feature Event called the Hoon-Ka-Boom Due to the rain delays - we did not get to see any of the GRC trials on Thursday night; all we saw was them setting up the course after the trucks finished The GRC Course is shown below
A few photos from Saturday we aren't permitted to use a camera while on duty - so these are before and after shift
	Saturday's Security Crew
Global Rallyecross - Saturday photos from David Kent & Ron Jenkins- Star Telegram
		Finland’s Marcus Gronholm won the Hoon-Kaboom Texas Rallycross Race today ...more info
	Lots of media coverage, including ESPN
Other Saturday Photos
	The Indy Racing Experience was readying their cars - if you have never done this, it is fun - 185-188 MPH
		a stroll down pit road (cold side) after our shift was over
	Photo - Ron Jenkins	being a Verizon employee, I hoped the Verizon Team (3 cars) however, they came in 3rd (#2), 7th (#3) & 8th (#12) tonight	Photo - AP
	...and since both of us are GS owners, we couldn't resist a photo with one of the GS Pace Cars
