You're kidding about the camping?

DuQuoin has ACRES of camping, numerous camper hookups (that may all be gone by the weekend) and I know of at least one and maybe two showerhouses.

If you don't need a hookup and are tent camping, there are a number of shade trees in the camping area and you might be able to pitch your tent on the backchute of the mile as there are numerous trees there.

Thanks B99. Only been to the mini mile for the Powri show in December. I appreciate your help. See you there!

Darland is supposed to be there I think. He was at Springfield in a 19 car

Per his Facebook he will be driving the 63 midget both nights of the Gold Crown and the 19 silver crown car in DuQuion on Sunday!

Wonder about the Dennis McQuinn #14 car

Just 2 days away from racing under the lights on the Magic Mile! The pre-entry list is of those whose entry blanks/information we have gotten to this point. There is always a good chance of a couple more cars (Darland a perfect example) who WILL show up but aren't on the current list.
