Well it's that time of the year when the All Stars make their first appearance at the famous Cow Palace for the first time in twenty-ten...Did I hear correctly 0-20 vs. the Posse?... :~/
Track prep hopefully will rival last week which should lend favorably to great racing, not just flat footing... 
I gotta believe the on track interference issue during TT's will be reviewed and corrected prior to this Event as well... 
TO THE FANS: Be very aware that the PA State Troopers are going to be swarming the place with uniformed and undercovered officers posing as race fans... Please wear you seat belts entering and exiting the facility so that your not ticketed or worst for the violation...If you must drink, take advantage of the fine No Hook Up camping that is available on the Speedway grounds or go with a Designated Driver if your not staying over...Also, avoid Beer Hill altogether, as I believe their being unfairly targeted by this...Unless, like me, your going to the Ice Cream Stand...
As always, I'll be in MSPN's vacated seat in the VIP, so stop by and say hi... ...However, if you feel the need to get up in my face and tell me how much I suck at the internet, do it with a tic tac in your mouth...TIA...
Stay safe and pray for no cautions...
Stan the Fan

I think Kenny Jacobs may have won a few of those All-Star races against the Posse

I was too busy standing by the Ice Cream Stand, eating my chocolate cookie dough, trying to pick out the undercover cops...

Kenny Jacobs does not have any All-Star wins at the Grove. That was the number referenced in the original post.

I didn't know Posse was only at the grove, I thought they raced at Williams Grove, Lincoln, Port Royal, Sellinsgrove, and back in the day Hagerstown, but who knows maybe you only claim Posse at Williams Grove.

Dude, I only sat in the VIP section once and for everyone's health and safety, maybe my own, I never went back. I did enjoy sitting a little higher up and closer to the bridge (with Rohan) near those two crazy girls who scream for Jack and the Outlaws all night long, you gotta love them! Standing on Beer Hill was always fun but not the best place to actually watch the race and the Grove is one place where watching the race is as good as it gets, for the most part. Never caught an All-Star show there, it seems they have as much chance there as the Posse does at most places (FL OH IA) other than the Grove except for the rare exception or fluke. Have a great weekend, Take It Easy....

The All Stars have 1 win in central PA in the last 20 some odd years whether it was Williams Grove, Lincoln, Port, or Hagerstown. Heck, even Cris Eash beat them at Grandview a few years ago.. That win belongs to Kenny Jacobs in the 6 car a few years ago at Lincoln. For what its worth, I enjoy when the All Stars come over to visit. I just dont expect them to win. Go Brian!

Smitty, considering the fact that SLINK51 is in th epizza line, I don't think it's a safe haven anymore...

Which reminds me, the food at the Grove is better than anywhere in the country. Are the fries the same as at Lincoln, which always seemed to be the best I've ever tasted? Potato chips and candy, two things that make Central PA famous, along with Cubic and BRR. Take It Easy....

I find your reading comprehension to be lacking. Read the topic title for cying out loud. @ The Grove, 0-20! Geesh!

Undercover cops at the races. Makes me think of what George Carlin (RIP) said about playing spy at the airport. "You know there's always a spy at the airport. Your job, find him!"
Surprised someone like Frankie Kerr didn't pick up an All-Star win in Pa.

When the title of the thread is "...at the Grove," I would think it is pretty obvious that is what the OP is talking about (shrugs).
