	Anyone going? I am thinking about late entering but does the Open 4D start at noon on saturday? ETA will they be doing exhibitions after Open race on Saturday and before the glow race? Edited by Kgirl 2015-10-29 8:00 AM

Elite Veteran Posts: 889	I think expos are first then they go Youth, NBR qualifier, Open, which should start around 1p. I think they may run some expos after Open and before the Glow in the Dark race is why the ??? mark is there. If you join the event on Facebook and ask for an update mid morning, I can try to tell you where they are at?

	Well I emailed the gal that is putting it on and she allowed me to sign up over email as a late entry! Which is great cuz i will probably arrive right at the 100 draw cut off! She was very easy to work with! Already loving how this show is run! Thank you everyone for your help and advice!
