Man what a great 4 days!!! : Not sure where to even begin, The races were some of the best I have ever seen so close and intense , wasn't real sure where to look at times. After Darland got the lead I knew he was gone, so enjoyed the battle with the young guns Stockon and Cummin;s, plus watching Short and Ballou come though the field WOW. Also got to met a lot of new people , at last met Racegal, I miss Manzy, Jerry and Josh and Sara Spencer even their dog (OMG is he huge), Don Short. Also got to hang out with the Lawrenceburg group great people good food cold beer, Bert and Bonnie Kearns (god I love them) took me to supper after races each night , listening to their stories and jokes kinda capped off the nights. The last night was blessed with getting to hang with Mrs. G and her cousin Toby (really a great guy ) walked the pits with them getting a IOW shirt signed by almost all the drivers for Bill"s gold scramble. Oh yeah Friday got to work with Mrs. Jon Stanbrough at their tent, what a great boss (had cold beer too) while she got things ready for the auction. What a great job her and Jon do for Kick It! Thanks to everyone who donated !!!! Thanks Kokomo Speedway USAC and everyone there .
