Morgan County, Anyone???

:nonwingfan:I was just wondering if anyone had heard anything further from Morgan County about what they are doing next year. Are they going to stick with Friday nights since Danville is running Saturdays?? Just wondering what everyone had heard. I know Billy West reads this board some so maybe we can get it from the promoters mouth.

Still daydreaming about April.
Happy Holidays to everyone......

Don't take this the wrong way, but we're only a week away from Christmas. Perhaps the Wests are busy? Look, I understand that some people work jobs that require that they turn in their vacation time rather early, but Dec. 18?

I'm sure we'll be hearing some news soon, especially with the Illinois State Fairgrounds Midwest Speed Expo coming up in a few weeks.

Hey, illiNOISE, some of us old farts are just impatient. I'm setting here looking at snow on the ground, hoping for anything which will remind me that racing season is right around the corner (OK, OK, maybe not right around the corner, but coming sometime). I want schedules and I want them now.

Seriously, your point is well taken. However, better that people are asking than not caring. Do you have a date for the Midwest Speed Expo?

Not being impatient at all. Just bored so I thought I would ask. No harm in asking is there?? Whatever they do we will be there to support them. I was really impressed with how they treated all of us last year. Not to mention fun little track.

On a separate note the new website for Vermillion county looks pretty good. They seem excited about weekly sprints.

Some of us need to be buying parts for the 2009 season. This depends on what nights
and what classes the nearest tracks are running. We hope to be racing mostly without the
wings. Track schedules will determine if we build a new 50" front axle or 53". Then there
are torsion bars, shocks and so on. Yeah, maybe a little impatient.

Here is an email reply I got from Billy West November 25th about what's happening @ Morgan
County in 2009:

Nothing major with the sprint class, hoping we will be able to run 2 nights next year and would love to run the non wings on Saturdays. We will be running a few more winged shows, all is still in the works now but will keep you posted. Working with Kenny Brown at POWRI on a non winged sprint deal but that too is still in the works as far as them sanctioning our non winged shows. Will let you know more as it happens.
