I just wanted to take a minute and thank John Kennedy for stepping up and putting that kind of money on the line in bringing back the Pittsburgher to what it was 10 years ago! I think every fan, race team,ect should thank this guy for what he did this weekend and hopefully he reads this board ( i know he reads others) and he see's that we really appreciate it! Can't wait for 2014! It felt Like I was at eldora with the fireworks and balls of fire, truley a great weekend!

I agree was awesome!!!!

Was fantastic to see the pits full and the stands close to full.

Thanks NDRL and everyone involved who helped make it happen.

Thanks to the Mileys stepping out of the way this was the best Pittsburgher in a long time. This shows people truly want to see the best drivers for big money and will come out to support an event, what a concept!

Yes yes yes, for love of Christ thank you John Kennedy because God knows if this was a Miley ran show it would've been 7,000 to win and Matt would've been here today praising the virtues of a local guy taking home the big prize. Please return for years to come Mr. Kennedy.

4k would be low. PPMS holds 10k in the bleachers and they were a good 1/2 to 3/4 full.

Should be a like button here somewhere, Mileys should take note, and if they would of ran a show like this would've been $75 to get in and over a $100 for the pits. So John come back next, was good to see quality cars again at PPMS.

oh wow i didnt know they held that much,of corse i was glued to my seat most of the weekend only glanced up at the grandstands on my way to the bathroom....so roughly 7500 in the seats and another 1000 in the pits.....thats some serious $CHA-CHIIING$ lol all in all it was a fantastic weekend of racing my opinion was damn near equivilent to Charlotte and Firecracker as far as talent on the track

Dirt...i like it

Awesome weekend!! Love the fact the entire Saturday event not one car got towed off the track (excluding Bakers spin into the pits) and the fast time of the SLM feature was set on lap 100!! No dust multi grooves all weekend. Cars lined up quickly for each event and no BS getting races started or lined up after a caution. Bathrooms stayed clean and they didnt run out of food or beer all night. Fireworks were great and even blew out some windows lol. Great concessions/souveneer trailers. A+ all around.

I have to agree with everyone. The quality of cars was great in all classes. The racing service was in great shape all weekend and the fact that guys were running wall to wall was great. The whole atmosphere was great and for the first time in a very long time, I seen the stands and pits full at PPMS full. Hopefully we can see this race continue to grow and become a high level national event like it used to be.

Wow.. Great event. Hadn't gone to the pittsburgher in 10 years. Well done, planning for next year already and will be camping instead of showing up one day.
