Hi Charles

IT FEELS REALLY COLD ANYTIME YOU ATTEND A RACE AT VENTURA including many races in the summer. The damp weather with the wind off the beach is much colder than what the temp says it is. I told the announcer Chase (fellow Iracer) to bring warm clothes. Even though it might be mid 70's at ventura today, IT WILL BE REALLY COLD TONIGHT.

Wished I didn't live close to ventura for one time in my life, would love to purchase PPV, but have to stay home prepping for a surgery. Can't take the chance of getting sick or anything. I'm sure the racing will be awesome, but expect some track prep and too much action at times. But it nice to see all the cars this year, and you can tell how proud the promoter, Jim Naylor is to have such a respected event. No one loves racing more than Jim, and I'm proud to say Ventura is my home track since the mid 70's when the track was only big enuf for tq'a. some would say it's still only big enuf for tq's . But I just love seeing sprint cars on a tiny track, but also enjoyed seeing USAC sprints at PAS for the ovals. I wished somehow USAC could schedule a national USAC Sprint Car show at Ventura one year, maybe have a usac west 360 show on Friday and than a 410 show on Sunday. Hell why not have Turkey Night next year on Thursday for midgets, USAC 360 on Friday and than the usac 410 On Saturday.

Too much pain meds, need to stop writing. happy thanksgiving to everyone. I'm jealous of those that get to attend or watch tonight's races, next year I will be there

cheers
