Hard to describe the sound and excitement of sprint cars on the great 1/2 mile Action Track. The place really hasn't changed too much since my first visit in 1965. The old guard rails are gone; pits outside the track; night racing and superior track preparation being on the list. Still get the same feeling coming into Vigo County FG that I have had for almost 50 yrs. Let's go racing!

Can we do the missing man salute to Gary Lee at this race and the remaining races of Sprint Week?

I will bring it up to USAC wed

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Why are the mods not on Terre Haute's schedule for Wed.? I wouldn't miss them on a mid-week show.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Well, I just looked at the site and mods are on the schedule. I tell you, I looked the other day and saw nothing about mods, which was fine with me. Geez, hittin' 60 is scarier than I thought it would be.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

First time there tomorrow, what should I do to get the full Action Track experience? Pit pass for sure. Pics from the infield. :6:

Hotlaps for sprints at 6. I'm gonna guess it will be sprint hot laps, sprint qualifying, mod hot laps then into heats. Unless they run mods first but doubt it. Racing to follow hotlaps qualifying

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

search function only pulled up info from last year, but is coolers allowed?

They were allowed at past events this year

Your good to go. Carry in coolers and they sell beer inside. Have fun and enjoy. You can have beer in coolers .

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Thanks guys. I'll be @ Terre Haute, Putnamville, and Bloomington. I ended up skipping the Burg because of the rain and my wife hates sitting in the bleachers at Kokomo. I had/have to work during Gas City and Haubstadt

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Was kinda hoping they would leave the mods off the program. Oh well, the price you have to pay.

but NO GLASS as usual, and for the grandstand seating i think they still follow the 14" rule.
Also HARF members, remember to show your CURRENT membership card for a $5.00 discount tonight.

Less down time. Between sprint races give drivers time to look at their equipment and make any changes. It will go smooth

Does anyone happen to know what gas prices are in Terre Haute?

Attachment 11853 Taken around noon time, lets race!!!:23:

I'll be in the infield, turn 3 as usual. Come by and say "Hi." Stanbrough has been hot, and he's good at the Action Track. He's my pick.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Was the fair last week or this week?

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Last week was the fair.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

Mods r a good show @ THAT!!!

I hear 38 sprints.

Has qualifying begun, trying to decide if I can make enough of the show to make it worthwhile.

Re: Terre Haute Wed July 16th
 

2 minutes ago somebody posted that the first hot lap group was on the track.
