Thanks, Rick. I was following the Ustream feed and it never showed progress. Facebook page looks great.
Wow! We will not have trouble reading the lap counters.
 
It's a a little less than three hours drive from home according to Google. Looking forward for the official opening and races schedule.

Hope to see you there soon.

Because light travels faster than sound, some people appear to be bright until we hear them speaking.

Well John, if that's the way you feel about it, then that's the last time I'm going to let you sleep in my raceway.  :aggressive:  :laugh2:  :tease:

Well, you're right then yours is best. And a meatball and spagetti supper. Damn, I forgot all that.

Course we had those wild pigs coming in to boot! Or was that just Greg Wells snoring??

Here's how I know it was you, Jay... or perhaps John himself.

You and I have traveled to many a race and split hotel rooms.

But that was the first time I've "roomed" with JC and, in all honesty, I was a little nervous.

I didn't sleep a wink that night... It's always hard to fall asleep with my back pressed against the wall.

LOL!

This is starting to answer the question, "Why didn't Cheater, Jay, and John want to stay at my house again this year".

All I know is, something kept my dog up all night.

I'd like to say it was those wild pigs you told us about that kept the dogs up. But do you think the snoring done it... LOL...
I've been told I do snore a LITTLE BIT...I do admit to just breathing a little loud ...

I've slept with a lot of men - close I meant - being a fireman for 32 years - I've heard a lot worse... so it did'nt bother me...

But I did sleep on my back all night also, Gregory... wild pigs or not... LOL...

This is good news to me, only two hours 15 min from my front door. After losing the track in Evansville this sound like a nice facility, and I have been reading about the printed chassis.

 

Looking forward to their getting a schedule posted for races.

 

I am going to try to see if I can make it there this Saturday 4/11/15.

Ok I finally got to turn some laps today and it's a really nice track and facility. Track is really fast and after a few tweeks probably the nicest track I ever raced on. First race next weekend and I can't wait. Drag racing next Friday night, Can-Am racing Saturday at 5 PM and the new 3D printed chassis nascar at 7 PM.

See everyone next weekend...

Thanks, Will.

You know you're getting old when you have to have a cardiac clearance to keep working. :shok:

You're not old until you don't want sex anymore and you're not a truly free man until you don't want sex anymore either.  :laugh2:  :crazy:
