Speedweek going on now here in Pa went to my home track grandview last night good show but I can't wait to see wingless sprints at these 3 tracks. Thanks ahead for all good info.:28:
Berks co,

A note of caution,

Indiana Sprint week is as addicting as anything I can think of. Many, many folks plan their vacations, dare I say, their whole year around these 10 days in July. My son and I came first in 2000 and haven't missed since. Our families know not to expect us to be around these two weeks. They know not to plan anything that needs our attendance. There is no cure for this addiction - you must have this fix every year or life may seem meaningless (OK, OK maybe it's not that bad).

Hit the museum, but plan on spending some time there.
