Re: Number of Shows Attended this Year
 

39 races. Hi lights were the final night of of the Knoxville nationals and all three nights of the Gold Crown Midget show.

Low lights were the day race at the Knoxville nationals. Way too many rain outs, and the truck overheating while getting money at the bank before trying to go to the track.

Dam, I thought I might be a little higher at 35 when I finish at the Oval Nationals

Re: Number of Shows Attended this Year
 

89 so far through this weekend. Was at Florence last night and missed both Shortbus and Chuck and that is hard to do.:3: Where were you guys hiding?:11: Hope to see a few more shows yet this year but old man winter is about here. Sorry to see the season end but more importantly sorry that I will not see so many racing friends until next spring.

The best show was where ever I was sitting in the bleachers watching racing that evening. The worst show I saw all year still beat the hell out of sitting behind the computer complaining about dusty track conditions, high ticket prices, late running shows, dog do do, motorcycles, not allowing a cooler, wing vs non-wing, mud cabs and tin tops and various other gripes, bitches and overall grief.:20: To all you folks, silly season is about here. Have at it.:18:

Re: Number of Shows Attended this Year
 

I thought I saw you at the Burlington WoO show in '09 ???

Re: Number of Shows Attended this Year
 

I don't keep track of how many races I see. If I did that, then I'd start thinking about how much money I'm spending on this addiction, and I don't think that's a good idea.:3:

I plan on hitting at least one more race this Saturday, down at Clarksville, TN. The December Du Quoin show is the week before Christmas, and when you work in retail, getting time off that time of year isn't easy.
