Not really out of my 'area' of travel but I sure dont make it to as many there as you or Jerry. I'll probably make it to another one there before the year is out. But if I think I can see a good race and travel an hour or so less it makes the decision easier. I still may try out Put this week, I know I will find AQ sitting up in the upper grandstand.

A snake is a snake aero, whether the weeds are trimmed or not, at your young age you should know this.

At Least this snake will only get a quarter of a % of my pay not forty % like the snakes in DC

That's how I'm looking at it. I have not been back in about 4 years. After the last bad experience I swore that I wouldn't go back and I have stuck to that. The NST still wheel packing at 11pm on a weeknight ended it for me. First time I have ever paid and gone home without seeing a race where there was no rain involved. DA is going to profit if the track is sold anyway. Doesn't matter who buys it. I'd like to see someone buy it that cares. I think we can see the "new" group does.

Yeah I'll be there if the weather is good. I'd like to go to Haubstadt,but with my work schedule,it is tough to do that and arrive at work just in time to go to work. I've had a pretty sleepless summer so far this season anyhow,so its nice to have a track to go to just down the road.

I've been going to Putnamville the last few yrs on many Saturday nights anyways. Usually its not my firsct choice,and I havent liked the past DA happenings any more than anyone else did. Work often dictated where I went on Saturday nights,and I moved to Indiana to watch sprintcars,so thats where I have gone.

Also,I reasoned that if the place closed,would we be any better off by not having that choice to go watch races there??

So I hope to see Hoover,and Bob & Monica there this Saturday night as well. Come check the place out,and see what improvements have been made. Besides that,I'll have someone to chat with when they run the other divisions. (And Jade will get a couple doggy biscuits as well!)

For those of you that are going, some pictures of the improvements would be nice for us folks that cant make it (stuck in the gulf of mexico) or are going elsewhere. I would love to see what all the improvements made thus far.

I think Bob and Monica are going to the 'burg. They want us to be guinea pigs to make sure DA is nowhere in sight before they return. :2: So skip the doggy biscuits, i dont think I would find them too tasty
PS the weather forecast looks fantastic!!
