Last year, I think there was one five minute period where I had some eye burning. But otherwise the Fumes were a non issue the entire show. However it was warm out, I'd say 50* and the back doors were open to the building.

I think the doors should be open unless its brutal cold. We're dressed for the appropriate weather anyway to get there and leave.

Didn't see a whole lot of empty seats last year, Id say get there early or you may be SRO. This is a killer show with three wide racing and the track gets faster, So fast that they intentionally slow it by keeping it on the wet side. They turn the track around in about 7-10 minutes, I barely had time to step out for a smoke and get back when they reworked.

Probably not going to make it unless I can find a ride and split expenses.

If you can't find a room in DuQuoin. Carbondale is about ten miles south and has plenty of rooms.
