I would love to see some red, white, and blue added to the walls at some point, and a lap counter/scoreboard. All the improvements look great, though, and I’m looking forward to Sunday.

Really like the local and racer involvement in bringing the place back up to snuff. Robert Ballou and Reece and others on track improvements. Tony Epperson on painting. Mrs Carmichael etc. etc. They bought some new light poles, I think they were extras from Haubstadt or Kokomo. Hope the ol girl gets in every show this year. Rumors are swirling of a WoO and Xtreme show in the fall.

I agree with everything you said, but if i was looking at the TBA dates for the Extreme series that would be up against the Cocapoh USAC dates. Hope I have that wrong. I will definitely be there on Sunday.
