With the high cost of fuel for our race teams and fans, we felt it was best to make the call early as opposed to waiting until later in the day. We feel bad because we were expecting a great field of cars and a large crowd, but we wanted save as much expense for people as we could.
It is a great opportunity for people to be recognized for a year's worth of work. We really have so many students in the organization that could be recognized. It's a shame we can't get them all up there.
