I used to enjoy watching the old WOOM midget races there.

They need to run the midgets there again. Jack Yeley just might come out of retirement for that one!

I would love to see that track again. I haven't been there in many many years. If the would run UMP Late Models, UMP Modifieds there it might be worth the almost 2 hour trip from northwest indiana. A lot of people I talk to say there late models are a joke sometimes.

I recall Dink and Curt Cornell talking about running Dink's black #8 Offy there more than 40 years ago. I believe their driver at that time might have been Rib Hare (yes, I spelled it right). The sanctioning body might have been the now-defunct UARA.
