Let's hope the water truck is making plenty of laps around the track prior to Friday and Saturday. As hot as it's been, it could be a dry slick weekend.

Good info. Lawrenceburg needs a good late model show. I hate that phrase "off topic'. WTH....we're all race fans and adults. If it's a topic promoting local racing, bring it on!
