Bev and I leave Dallas Tuesday morning for Gas City, we'll do midget week, then work our way to Pennsylvania for PA Speedweek, then up to the Northeast states to get Maine, NH, Vermont, MA, etc. off our bucket list, then back to Indiana for Sprint week, then over to Northern Kansas for Belleville High Banks midgets and silver crown. Tent camping & truck stop showers.

.Bev retired from nursing last year and the first thing on her bucket list was Indiana Sprint Week. We had such a good time we're doing it again. Met wonderful people everywhere we went. The people who work at track at Lincoln Park in Putnamville made us feel special.

We hope to meet some fans who enjoy the dirt racing as much as we do. After 20 years of seeing drivers & crews at the Chili Bowl, it will be great to see them at their home tracks. If you see us, say hi! We'll be in a White VW Passat TDI with Texas plates.

If anyone has recommendations for tracks in between, please suggest. Looking to fill the open dates in between the following:
June 12-16 Indiana Midget Week
June 28 - July 7, PA Speedweek
July 12 - 21 Indiana Sprint Week
July 30 - August 3 Belliott KS & Belleville, KS
Was hoping to see the supers run at Oswego but that may not work out this trip.

Attached is a picture of Bev with a driver who's hands are always dirty. Anybody want to guess what year?

MSCS is at Lincoln Park Speedway in Putnamville on June 22. That is 30 miles or so from Terre Haute. June 23 is a POWRi/USAC/Badger midget and Micro show at Angell Park. MOWA winged sprints at Jacksonville July 26, Macon July 27 and Danville July 28. Also, USAC Silver Crown and midgets at Lucas Oil Raceway (the one west of Indy) July 27 and the Bob Darland Memorial at Kokomo July 28. This is in addition to regular Friday nights at Gas City and Bloomington, Saturdays at Lawrenceburg, Lincoln Park and Paragon, and some Sundays (check their web site) at Kokomo. I'll check and see if I come up with anything else. Hope this helps.

PAW, dirtnonwingfan,
Thanks for the suggestions. Big help. Angel Park has always been on our list to make it to. I missed the Terre Haute weekend also. See you at the races.

Something I always find fun is to when traveling is use the GPS and seach racetracks to see what is around. The hard thing is convincing my traveling friends to stop at the tracks though.

It's a little bit of a haul, but if you do end up coming up to Angell Park for that show, let me know. Would be more than happy to show you around
