I just got off of the phone with Bobby Layne from out in Kansas and he wanted to know was the race in Du Quoin still a go. I told him as far as I knew it was.

If Bobby is going to be there I guess We will have to show up, We can always use a few more driving and set up lessons.

Do we have any updates out their?

It says Chili Bowl rules......but I also saw on Facebook that they are having an insurance issue. Not sure whats going on or how it will effect the rules or the payout. That is for the midget portion at least.......
