Lincoln Park Speedway, Joe Spiker, D.O. Laycock and so many other people help put together a race last night that they called the Indiana Open Wheel Racin Fest.

It was good to see such a large crowd at a track that just last year was written off as dead by so many people.

I've seen the effort that Joe Spiker has put into revitalizing LPS first hand and I know, those efforts will not stop.

The track was rough... which I sort of expected considering a new clay layer on the track and the large amount of rain we got just 2 days prior. I am confident to say that the track surface we saw last night is not what we will see the whole year. It will be better.

It was great seeing my best friend, Brian Hayden drive his ass off trying to get an IOW Racin Fest win. He finished 2nd after Chad Kinder made the pass near the end of the race.

I had a great time catching up with so many friends!

As Spridge said last night, IOW basically started because of a few guys playing an online racing game... Spridge, there are alot of people racing online now and they have regular meet and greets every weekend!!

I want to give special thanks to D.O Laycock, Joe Spiker, Steve Reutemann, and everyone else that had a part in making this a race I will never forget!

I cannot express how happy and appreciative it made me to see a race named the IOW Racin Fest. Those of you that know me, know that I am a humble guy and that I am not comfortable with all the praise everyone gives me for doing this web site. While I am completely aware the impact this site has made on so many people, I just cannot wrap my arms around the thought that I am the sole reason the impact was made. I guess you could say this website is my version of the great movie, Field of Dreams. That saying... "If you build it, they will come" thing really did happen.

Thanks everyone!
