Not a powrI show, but I bet the Gold crown is looking at that first weekend in Sept...hoping to maybe avoid the crap weather that the October dates have slammed them with...

Which brings me to the Leffler Memorial... it's great to move it toward the end of the schedule and make it a big finale with such a big purse and such a great cause.... but my gosh late October is a scary time to try to have a big race in that part of the country... could be 75 degrees at 5PM, could be 25 degrees...could be in a 3 week long drought or could have 8 inches of rain in a 36 hour period.

As not only race fans but people who care about other people...for the sake of the racers, the fans, the promoters and especially Charlie...lets all please start saying a little prayer every chance we get that mother nature gives southern Illinois some beautiful weather that week in October.
