It's just wrong there is no Hut Hundred anymore. Yet hundred lappers happen elsewhere.

Fan support for the great racing of the Silver Crown division on the 2 Illinois 1 mile dirt tracks is so low. Humbug indeed!

Dirt late models race for 10x the money non-winged sprints do.

Good thread Charles. For me, it's my physical limitations that make it very difficult to attend any races nowadays. Yeah I know about Flo and all the other streaming providers, but there is nothing, NOTHING, like being there in person. Well there is my living room recliner's close proximity to the concession stand otherwise known as our kitchen.🙂 In all seriousness, I wish each member of IOW a blessed and peaceful Christmas.

He will be there, if you have him on your mind, memories are wonderful company.

Coming from a person who has been battling health problems since February, and lost his job from not being able to return in a reasonable time. Maybe it would be more appropriate at this time of year to concentrate on the good things. We all claim to love the sport, but focus our energies to tear it down. Maybe if we were more positive, it would carry over.
I am thankful to be alive. I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to say that not long ago. I want to thank everyone who participates in the sport in any way for providing me a distraction from life's problems. I have been going to races for quite a while, and the last 6 or 7 years, the on track product has never been better. Can't wait to get back to the track. My goal is March at DuQuoin. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, and hope for good things for all. |
