-(11pm 3/18/23) The racing was great. Very cold out when the sun was behind the clouds. Our seats were perfect. Here are some Pictures from Truck and Xfinity race . The first race was the FR8 208 Nascar Craftsman Truck series. The winner of that race was Christian Eckes #19. After that was the Xfinity series RAPTOR KING OF TOUGH 250. Austin Hill from Winston, Ga was the winner of that.

10am (3/19/23) Very cold this morning. We arrived at the track and walked around the Fan Zone. Ross Chastain and his brother Chad were at the Georgia Highway Safety tent. We met up with Susan Chastain (Ross's Mom) and had a nice little talk with her while Ross & Chad were singing autographs. 

1230 (3 /19/23) We headed into the track to our seats and got ready for the pre race concert with Parmalee. 

3pm (3/19/23) After driver intros the race got underway and 10 laps in Bubba Wallace spun out on the backstretch. Stage one came to an end with 22 Lagono getting the stage points. Stage two went green for all 100 laps. Stage 3 also 100 laps was the final of 260 laps with Lagono coming to the checked flag. The race itself was awesome. Not a big fan of the new pitroad entrance.  Now we wait a month and a few days from now we I'll be at 'Dega. Looking forward to seeing some fast racing.
