The Dick Gaines Memorial (8/22/09) will now be a 10K to win, USAC sanctioned event.

I believe that makes three 10K to win events for the traditional sprinters at The 'Burg in '09.

Also fills what had been a void from the end of ISW to the 4-Crown which previously had no USAC sprints on dirt here in the tri-state area.

Dave got my attention by coming in to Bob Evans this a.m. wanting to know where he could park the bus he had filled with folks looking for a free breakfast. After I was revived, it turns out that he was just joshin' and that he had to rush off to a meeting further west.

I owe ya Dave.
That's huge news, Marv! Dick Gaines deserves to have a bigger event for his memorial race and Dave deserves our support for stepping up and making this thing happen.
