Friends, it’s only a few days away and we’ll gather at Indiana’s Baddest Bullring to celebrate and enjoy what many of us consider the best stand alone sprint race of the year. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong but if someone leads every lap, they could take home $35,000! That’s big money! $1,500 to start the big show you sure hope will inspire the best sprint pilots and teams to show up and compete. We’re going to roll in Friday and looking forward to seeing all of you at Kokomo. Try to make it if you can, but if you can’t watch on Flo and try to expose someone else to this big event.

FlagBoy you are spot on if someone can go wire to wire. Their rewards for doing so is $35,000 hard earned dollars. Can’t wait to see these guys get up on the wheel and get after it. So far the weather looks good, my fingers are crossed. We will be there all 3 days. Should roll in about noon-1pm Thursday.

That's one of the pluses about living 1-2 miles from the track...I am around it and work around it everyday with our livestock being straight west of the track. Been there multiple days the last week or so. Its gonna be so so awesome. I'm calling in to a local radio station this week to talk it up and try to get newcomers to give it a try. Saturday and King of The Hill is the best!! Smackdown holds a special meaning to me way beyond racing!! I look forward to meeting some of you if you want, message me when your there. I bounce from the pits to the front stretch to the campground to the back stretch!! GYATK hahahaha

16 the only thing I disagree with is the king of the hill. But I won’t go into negativity. Hopefully our paths cross this weekend

I always see people saying they want higher paying races. Hopefully those people will all support it. Always a lot of action crammed into 3 days.
