I feel nauseous watching TJ run at L-Burg. I don't know if Eldora has enough beer to get me through that evening of racing. 
I know exactly how you feel. The only way Doug's mom can watch a race is behind a video camera. This a a good chance for us to go out and sell our sport to a lot of people who have never even heard of these little cars before and that is how I got hooked. And like a drug addic missery enjoys company and I want more people to be miserable like me.
before we go to a new track I always do a google map of it a 200 feet resolution. From what I can tell is Lawrenceburg would just fit inside Eldora's infield. When we raced at lawrenceburg some nights we used a whole lot of the track. Eldora is a lot wider than lburg so there should be plenty of racing room.
L burg is a HorsePower track for minisprinters and Eldora will be a supper horsepower track. Engine and fuel tec should be done there.
With our little 175 - 200 horsepower cars you can only go so fast and they are reaching that speed already at lburg. They will reach that speed at Eldora. I think about 100mph will be it, then the govoner "Wind drag" will slow us down.
The big "E" should be a lot of fun for the racers, something to tell their grand kids about. Any race track should be respected but not feared. If the fear is there don't do it. We could use some pit crew help.
