I talked to Loris today and she said the NWS was going to be by to determine what exactly it was and they did have some serious damage to the buildings by the house. If you are familiar with the track their house is literally right behind the pits and the grain bins are beside the house. The track sustained minor damage which wont impact any scheduled events.

Glad everyone is all right. I was in Indy Wed. night, met some folks that described a hair raising experience driving from Richmond to Indy, they saw a number of tractor trailers blown over on I70. My dog and I were woke up several times during the night when severe storms rolled through. I heard 24 tornados touched down in Indiana on Wed.. Hope everyone stays safe, it is an active tornado season.

Dan,

I started a thread about this tornado earlier today, but I didn't have a link to the story. It was mentioned in the media that the tornado was on the ground from Haubstadt to Buckskin.

Sorry to hear of the damage. Glad everyone is ok. Haubstadt is "The Class Track" for sure.
