Rough night, didn't sleep well but squeezed in about six hours, Was ready to say heck with it, Not making 4hr drive each way etc.

Went outside to get something from car. Came back and there was a Grasshopper on the door.

See you in a few hours :)

is STATE RD 1 open if not is there anyway around it or 275 the only way

1 sucks! Not sure why anyone would go that way to start with. 74 West to Batesville. Turn right off the exit on 229 to 46 East to 129 South. Take 129 South to 350 East turn left, to 50 East turn left again, to the track.
Great smooth roads!

The Dick Gaines Memorial will have chamber of commerce weather this time around. I will be there and shooting for 3 - 3:30 this afternoon with some pet items in tow.

If you are in a car/pick up truck/SUV you can still us SR-1. Just as you enter Greendale the road is closed but a local detour is well marked. You will turn right on Nowlin Ave., left on Parkside Ave., then left on Ridge Ave. and you will end up at the stoplight at SR-1 and Ridge Ave.

You CANNOT use this detour with a trailer because there is a one lane tunnel you drive through on Nowlin Ave. to pass under the railroad tracks. If you have a trailer or motorhome I suggest I-275.

In time it's no different to do 275. Mileage yes.

Stapps way is ok, Just watch for the deer as you would have too on Rt1. But I feel its only better if your starting in downtown Greensburg. The highway is the best way to fly.

On my way shortly. Tony Main and Tony McVey also racing. Should be a full field for sure to honor Dick Gaines. One of Indiana's toughest competitors ever.

Anyone have any idea of drivers and car count tonight?
