<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:-.9in;margin-bottom:8.0pt;margin-left:-.7in">The interior of race track or paddock is going to be a tight
area and it will be necessary for all of us to be polite to everyone that
volunteers their time along with giving the right of way to race cars getting
on and off the race track into their paddock positions. Look for Spridget Car
Show signs directing you to Spridget Paddock in the interior of the race
track. The gate to cross into the track
opens between race sessions approximately every 30 minutes. When you are at the gate you need to let them
know you are entering Spridget Car Show and have permission to enter paddock.<o:p></o:p></div>
