Charles, you're making too much damn sense!
Build a new fence for God's sakes! I miss the Indiana Sprint Week opener there; some of the best sprint car races I've ever seen. This has been an issue since 2007 when they last had a USAC race and it seems like whoever runs the track just can't admit there's a problem (or they don't care). Like Charles more or less said, they've had 8 years to at least piecemeal something halfway decent. |

Tom Wetherald now owns the track, not Dave Allison anymore.

Just let it rest guys, the ones who don't want to come don't come the ones who do will Thats at every track of it was going to be fixed it would've been they've known about the problems trust me you guys post about the fence everytime there is a race at Vernon if they raced every weekend someone every week would bring it up! We all know they know about the fence it is what it is.. How many cars have left the park at terrehaute and landed on cars in the parking lot? Everyone still loves that place. My opinion id rather go through the fence like Brady did than have a bad ass fence like Eldora and have it pin ball you back in front of traffic and get hit wide open

My point about the fence is not only about Brady going though it but and its a BIG but, But a lot of you guys are probley to young to remember the old Florida Fair Grounds Speedway. If I even remember right it was a half mile fairly flat track kinda like Terre Haute, but anyway George Snyder caught the wall a bit before the first turn and got up in the catch fence.part of the car went though the fence and as the car was turning over the fence was wrapping around it Snyders injuries were not life threating but they were bad enough , broken arm shoulder, back wasn't broke but think pulled muscles. The deal here is no one could help Goerge till they got the fence away from the car which they did but it took a good half hour the 45 minutes before they get Goerge out , I just remember him sreaming out in pain.I don't want to hear that again . But Logan you made a very good point to about a fence as you said pin balling you back in front of traffic. I guess none of us really have the answer about it . You guys race there and Ill go to another track that night and hope all you guys are ok
