I already have my vacation days entered for this great event. if we can just get the weather Gods to smile upon us. It has been a strange fall in the heartland

Couldn't agree more Jonr. I remember all too well the Sept. 6th POWRi double features at Macon, IL. There were 5 support classes and 4 of them were stock cars 2 of which were hornets! Sigh.

We're not able to attend The Gold Crown due to having to make a living but I'd sure like to. I'm not a winger kind of person, either, but I'll gladly take MOWA 410's any day over the debacle at Macon.

I aligned my work schedule so that I would be working in STL this week, just so that I could make it to the Thursday and Friday shows. I haven't been to Gold Crown since the inaugural event. I cannot wait until Thursday night!!! I am even bringing 3-4 first time open wheelers, but long time race fans!

I prefer NW races myself but anyone willing to strap on 900HP wing or NW usually means business. See ya at the races
