Great pictures! It's just not fair for us here in Wisconsin to see pictures like that in the middle of winter. It's a mess here to but all that brown stuff that's on the ground in those pictures just happens to be white here. :crying:

Las Vegas odds makers are saying 30-1 AGAINST making the 1st scheduled race this spring! :wink

Mother Nature is going to have to help a BUNCH to prove them wrong!

I have worked construction most all my life and there is a lot of work left to do. We stopped by there a couple of weeks back and what we could see they have done looks GREAT, but it is a long way from done! :rolleyes:

One thing about it, the years biggest gamble in Lawrenceburg isn't being placed on the tables at the boat.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but what is it about these changes that will help the shows be better? Why will these take Lawrenceburg from an above average local track to an elite experience?

Don't know if the shows will be better but the facilities will surely be there to take marketing to the next couple of levels. Most tracks are known for a particular race at their facility. Maybe the burg will be known for 3 or 4 types of big shows as the facilities will be first rate. Just a thought. Also was told tonight that construction is right on the schedule. Should be done at the end of March.

I have a feeling that this was all done not to improve the sprint car racing, but to attract oh say... late models, and the Outlaws? They turned it into a engine dyno, and I would be willing to bet that you will see the car count dwindle as the summer goes on, due to motor failures, or guys just not being able to be competitive with the bigger dollar teams.

You hit the nail on the head!! I cringe everytime I see one of these "L'burg Construction posts".
