Just curious, if anyone has looked at their schedules, with one eye, and the other on the fuel prices. Me, I'd say the outside of the circle won't be any further than 40 miles, and that's fine, for now. Bob!

Yea, but you live in the racing zone Bob. Maybe I need to move closer to where the action is.

Jimmie, I don't know what happened to my reply, but maybe it wasn't important anyway, I just want to see your new trailer, I just want to be jealous, must be nice, maybe I'm losing interest, nah, just can't get excited that much, love it after I get there, just don't look forward to the work for the next trip, maybe cause arthur has got hold of my back! Bob!

Already been to Ocala (900 mi one way). When the season starts here, the majority of my race attendance will be in that 40 mi circle, LPS (13 mi) and THAT (18 mi). But, I usually make 6-8 trips to Bloomington (one way 55 mi), 2-3 to Paragon (one way 45 mi), a couple to Gas City (one way 135 mi), a couple to Kokomo (one way 115 mi) 2-3 to TSS (120 mi one way) and can't miss N Vernon (130 one way). The best way to do it is to not keep track of fuel bought.

We used to enjoy those road trips, in the Winter, or anytime for that matter, but we've all gotten older, and everyone is so busy, and it has become a one man show, which I could handle when I was younger, but time has way with people, I'd go in a heartbeat, if I had someone to share all the "fun" with, but that ain't happening, so I'll keep it close, so I won't have to wear my "jammies" to the race track! Bob!

From the shop, Bloomington Speedway is 98 miles, Paragon is 128 miles, and Putnamville is 164 miles. Hopefully the gas $$ holds out, or maybe my dad will get generous around July.

Maybe we should start posting car pool ideas together. What tracks ,from what location, meet and share gas cost.
