Greenfield looks like a nice area with some houses available, thank you for the recommendation. Only thing is I will be working in northwest Indy so the commute might be a little long, I'm not sure what Indy traffic is like.

There is a nice little community in southeastern Indiana called Osgood. It's all good in o so good. LOL. Have fun and enjoy the great Hoosier hospitality and all the great racing tracks. We are simply spoiled for the great dirt track racing events in Indiana. Aq made the move to Indiana many of years ago and slept in his van for a while till he found a spot to land. LOL.

When I bought my house here the average age in Speedway was 92.8,and after I moved in I brought the average age down to 87.4. There's still a good amount of older population living here. Why? Its a decent place to live,quiet,fairly low crime etc etc. The biggest selling point for me back then,was its so close to the Interstates,and I could be on my way to any racetrack within minutes. Its a good central location to be a racefan.... |

Osgood would be a fun town to work out of, they are good people, and do have a dirt track there also, the daily trip might be a drag, but you might be able to find some shortcuts, once you settle in, is a thought.

I'm currently racing dirt oval go-karts in New York and doing SCCA solo events in my '89 Mustang, and am looking to take the next step in my dirt racing. I would like to be racing non-wing sprint cars some day. They are the absolute purest racecar with the best racing in my opinion, not ruined by technology or ******** (not that other racecars are bad, I love them all).
To take the next step up from go-karts and get one step closer to sprint cars I am planning on getting a 600cc micro-sprint when I get to Indiana. A micro-sprint is something I can afford, and don't need a whole team to race. I then believe if I work hard enough and stay committed to my goals, opportunities will come up, or I will make my own opportunities to drive a sprint car one day. This is another reason I am looking at houses in Indy or north of there, because the tracks I would like to race at (US24 and Circus City) are in northern Indiana. |
