Some Terre Haute News Via 4m

This snippet of news is from a poster named "modracer9"

Ijust got back from the racers show at the Indiana museum. While I was there I ran into Mike King. He told me in his own words that His promotional group IS signing a contract this week for promotional rights to the action track. he said there will be a news conference this week to make it offical. he said there will be six races this year including three usac shows and the world of outlaws. this is great news for the historic half mile.

So take this for what its worth

You better watch posting information Chris that does not have to do with late models people will think they are converting you.:rolling:

Thanks I am looking forward for THAT to reopen just like everyone else.:thumb:

An MSCS race wouldn't surprise me at all either.:checkered:

I would really like to see a 2 day show no matter if it's spring, summer or fall but maybe that is down the road a year or so yet. You know how it is when we travel 6 hours it's nice to be somewhere for 2 days.

I am hoping that an MSCS show is one of the two others as well.:thumb:

I saw the outlaws run there once, and it was a great show. They were running high and low all night. Car count was low, but it is hard to expect many locals to show up. It was probably the best outlaw race I've ever seen. It definitely wasn't as good as most USAC races. A Sumar race really stands out. Tony Elliott and JJ Yeley were swapping the lead for the last 5 laps or so. Tony edged him at the line. I can't wait to go back!

After I saw some good wingless racing at THAT I pretty much declined on going back for any winged racing. Would be cool to see the Hut 100 and a USAC sprint race on back to back nights again just like a few years ago.
