I will be there, don't know if I will be taking pictures or something else. Hopefully the chance of rain all week doesn't happen that day, but knowing mother nature and her history with the track.......I won't say it.

I first went to Terre Haute in '65, and have many fond memories of the place. That includes a ride with Jack Hewitt in his 2-seater. But one memory that always pops up doesn't actually involve one of the heroes racing, per se. At one event, when the cars stopped on the main straight for a red, Toby loosened his belts, removed his gloves and helmet, and promptly took a nap! One of his crew guys woke him up when USAC called for the drivers to get ready for the restart.

Fish, you are right those were some great race drivers and some great races. I stared going there in I think early or mid 50's as a child, but recall Jimmy Bryan and Duane Carter racing at the first race I attended. Many good days spent there. Worst day I spent there was the day Johnny White was hurt. I will be there this weekend, hope for good weather.
