Excellent choices in all categories! George Seats signed me and my mother up in 1983. She was a loyal supporter until she passed in 2001. Will always remember the night we attended a midget race at the now defunct St. Charles, MO Speedway. George and his lovely wife, Terry, were both there. They gave mom a large supply of Jolly Rancher candy from the big box George had in the back seat of his Buick Electra. I've been a member continuously since 1983, and now my wife, Earlene, is a member as well. Wish I could attend the HARF meetings, but the distance, and other commitments preclude that.
I'm glad I got to drive around the Speedway on a couple of occasions, (and not at a fast idle), back in the day. Thank you HARF for all you do to support my favorite sport and for all the discount nights you provide members each year!
