I've been a regular participant and observer for years at Bethel. It is not "your typical asphalt track".....meaning, a low wide car is not necessarily the hot ticket.
Unlike most asphalt tracks where the momentum through the corners is everything, Bethel is run more like dirt. It is a small and very stop & go kind of track. The size and layout of the track provide a lot of opportunity to make moves in traffic, unlike the "freight train" seen at many larger paved tracks.
Although the track's regulars run well, I've witnessed outsiders come in with their regular dirt track setups and run really well. A few have even come in and pulled off a win in their first attempt.
Also, it is not really a horsepower track....many teams get by with less motor, but they have the handling figured out. Bottom line is that the skilled DRIVER has the advantage on this track. Negotiating traffic is the most important key to winning there.
GOOD LUCK to all the teams that give it a try....win or lose, I'm sure you'll all enjoy the challenge. Bring your fans too, it is a great place to view a race as you can see the whole track perfectly!
