I hope they get their dust problem settled (pun intended). The ISW race was probably not too bad, but it was difficult to see the cars.

We are aware of the dust at the Terre Haute action Track and are working very hard to correct it. We have and are trying many different techniques, some of which are working and some are not. We just want to assure everyone we are and will continue to try very hard, including more equipment, more water, ripping the track up, new dirt and even more effort.

Thanks to you & your staff for all the efforts and keeping THAT operating.

I bounced back and forth between Turn 4 and Turn 1 and the difference was night and day! The covered stands still had a great view.

Good to hear they are addressing the problem. There is better dirt beneath what was brought in a while back and thats not the current promoters fault. I feel bad for them actually that they have to deal with it. I have many home videos from '94-'98 that show little to no dust. Plenty of day races before then that weren't bad either. It was a heavier dirt that produced a bigger cushion but that's the trade off I guess. Bottom line is if they are doing things to help then I will continue to support the track. It is my favorite track and can provide the most exciting racing I've seen.
