I just can't sit still and watch this go down any more, and without promoting it thru the interweb, how else do you get that kind of
free publicity. Just sayin! Bob

Maybe with your support they could afford someone to manage the media aspect, meaning with someone who has Internet background and just not a keyboard jockey! When was the last time we have seen a 30 race schedule with 23-28 cars on a nightly basis. For that I say thank you to Terry and family. Hopefully the media aspect does improve , but it certainly isn't because they are hiding something. King of the tqs is the best kept secret in the state of Indiana

Devin, even if you could, you'd never reach the number of races I've raced, so get over it, I doubt you've been out much more then I have in the last 3 years, and you can walk, something I don't do well anymore, I'll soon be 79 years old, I have more time in the chow line than you do on this planet, try to remember the old Indian saying, about walking a mile in a man's shoes, before you call him out, or put him down.

Thank you Steve W. I appreciate you taking the time to post the schedule, which is rather impressive, in my opinion. Does anyone know of other organizations?

[TQ29m]

I'd just like to add this, although some of you might not understand why I brought this up, it's because I care, I have had a lot of enjoyment racing tq's, contrary to what some of you might think, even though I may no longer be able to attend, it has been a lot of fun, for the most part, I am not a lemming, and I may not follow the herd, I tend to stay and fight, if I can see some more that care, not for themselves, but for everyone, these cars can be a challenge, they are not for everyone, but they were created that way, I'm done now, it's up to you. Bob

No Frank,. King of the tqs is the only organization around Indiana! Will see ya at Sprint week! Stop by and say hi!

[dirtnonwingfan]

Thanks Devin. From what I have been able to find, on Saturday nights in northern Indiana Miami County Speedway in Peru runs "wing, nonwing, restrictor, junior and senior"; US 24 Speedway in Logansport runs several classes (but I couldn't find a list of what they are called); and Plymouth runs 600 nonwing "sprints". Is Miami County still open? I couldn't find any results for the month of June. Is this it for these types of cars in northern Indiana? Are there really no other organizations which represent these types of cars? I am just trying to get a handle on where information is available, as it appears to be difficult to find.

Also add to schedule July 11th at Columbus,IN. Tony Stewart will be in attendance

Bob, I know exaclty where you are coming from brother. I can no longer drive at night which has limited my attendance at any track for a couple years. I loved TQ racing. It's affordable for the little guy and good racing in the fairgounds settings like I love. It's hard to keep up with things sometimes which I still like to do. Thanks for any PR or results from all the clubs.
