I love this track. :)

Sean Caisse won the race and Patrick Sheltra took the points lead by 5 over Parker Kligerman.

Matt Merrell, Bryan Silas, Craig Goess, Ryan Crane, Steve Arpin and Alli Owens all had career runs.

Only got to see the last 15 laps, as my daughter turned off my DVR settings, which had previously recorded every ARCA/Re-max event for two years. But that's all you need to see, right?

Looked like a rather decent crowd by ARCA standards, and you're right, every single one of the mentioned drivers had career runs.

The crowd was great. Cameras didn't show how many people were sitting high. From what I could see, all the VIP suites were more than 50% full and the grandstands off turn 4 were about 80% full.

There were also a lot of fans in the paddock. The crowd wasn't mind-blowing, but it was at expectations. You're right, great crowd for ARCA standards considering they didn't have NASCAR there.

There were a lot of families as well. Kids and adults alike... it wasn't one single demographic like some of the NASCAR Camping World races.

Andy Hillenburg did a great job with the track. World class facility. I went at stopped at a few local businesses on the way to Wadesboro and on the way back to the track Sunday and many of the locals were glad Andy revived The Rock.

Yes, certainly no one was expecting The Rock to be revived. I'm glad many of the locals are happy. ARCA is his feature attraction right now, if he's going to pull it off in the long run, he's going to have to do it with them.

Some guy posted rave reviews on the ARCA facebook group. Free Parking, not bad traffic, cheap concessions, good racing, etc..
