Wondering about the Gentrys

Corydon, KY experienced a devastating tornado recently. I noticed a pickup truck in the background on one of the local TV stations with a front license plate that said "The Gentry's". I wonder if any of the racing family received any damage.

I sat next to Chris at Twin Cities Saturday and he didn't make any mention of any damage. Said they were waiting on some things to get back and then would be putting cars together. But they could have had damage and just didn't mention it.

Really nice family had a ton of fun racing with them in years past.

Good to hear that they will be back on the track.
It is rare to go to a race in the tristate area that doesn't have at least one Gentry in the field.
