First off, if we would not have had our mscs fall nationals race this past saturday, i damn sure would have been at terre haute! This place, in my opinion, is getting a second chance at life when at this time last year nobody knew what was to become of her. Seems ther was a conflict of interest with the mod show and hut. I don't know tall the cicumstances, but when a big show is rained out and the promoter reschedules, just shows me that you have a promoter that is behind the racers and the fans. We had the same problem last year with our monster mod race being r/out and running the next week in conjunction with the hoosier fall classic. Alot of people did not like it, but alot , to my surprise did. It turned into a good nite.
Secondly, maybe things did not turn out time wise or whatever, but there seems to be a very valient effort going on at reviving this grand speedway, and if there was any mistakes made with things this past weekend, which i would not know, they were made because alot of effort is being put into it. My father always told me " ya can't f*ck up if ya just stand there and do nothing"
i wish everyone invloved with the revamping and restoration of this grand old track the very best of luck! I will see you when we are having a down weekend at the burg.

dave,
very well said -- as you know i was there & yes they did waste a lot of time but i think this year is a learning curve & will be much better next season. --- they did have a great crowd in the stands & the infield was loaded.
