A little common sense goes a long way. Nothing we can do about mother nature when she sets her mind on something.

It's Tuesday kids... And since when do we have so much faith in the Indiana weatherman?

I've taken Friday off work and am hoping to make my first visit to Bloomington and Haubstadt this weekend. I drove a thousand miles and made it to three days of racing last weekend. Don't let me down Hoosiers!

I think Haubstadt is looking pretty good right now. I hear Levi throwing a wing on the Jack Rogers machine for this show. Wondering if any other locals gonna be bold enuf try to add wing and attempt to make show.

As of now Saturday looks good for Haubstadt. Sunny with a high around 60. Ya it's wings but I'll take what I can get with the weather we've been having. And if anyone can get a track into shape it's Tommy and crew.

Start Building the ARK. Take a look at the Radar and whats coming.

Everyone stay safe. Weds night and thurs storms have a moderate risk of severe weather includes most of indiana.

I'm still heading that way on Friday...

Any recommendations on tracks in Illinois or Southwest of Bloomington that I can go to?

Dirt is preferred, but I'm not a snob, I can watch late models, mods or wings.
