Is the tunnel dry? Or do I need to wear my boots to get to the infield?

Take a canoe just in case.

Car count anyone?

The high tomorrow is going to be 82 and we received a moderate rain a little less than two days before race time. It's going to be a beautiful day to go to the track and the Action Track's gonna be in prime condition.

See everyone there! I'm bringing a friend of mine, who has never been to a race of any kind, so I figure it'll be a good one to start him out on! :O:

Mr. Nunn I'll try to stop by the tower 'n say hello!

The tunnel still has water in it, as of about an hour ago. I would make plans to enter the infield the way they did during the last race. And that is by the turn four chute. The track was looking good. They have obviously been watering and working on it this morning. Mike King was there, directing all that was going on.

It's a gorgeous day here in Terre Haute. I'm ready to see the USAC Silver Crown division invade the Terre Haute Action Track!!

How late can you get there and still use the turn 4 chute? By the time I get off work, pick up the misses and get up there, it might be around 6. We normally use the tunnel, but if thats not an option, then we'll have to adapt I guess.

At the last show, they would open it up any time there was a break in the racing action and a group of people would stream across the track, in both directions. So it wasn't closed after a certain time. And since there are no support divisions, there will be lulls.
