You will save 30 min driving time if you go 41 to Vincennes, 50 to Flora & 45 North. The track located on the left, you can't miss it.

Shortbus,

My teachers told me that all of the time. I didn't believe them then and look what it gets me now. Taken to the wood shed yet another time.:doh::O:

I think there will be some bigger names there this time.
This facility was really laid out nice with easy access to the pits from the stands so its easy to sit with loved ones that don't want to pay $30 to go into pits. I thought consessions were good and track was nice except for being a little dry and slick, but mother nature should take care of that this time.
They ran the show off quickly and on time.:thumb

I was seriously considering attending this race, but after the rubber down race last month, I'm concerned that a lot of cars won't come back. Also, $20 admission seems a bit much and you can't take in a cooler. Not very fan friendly. Paragon may be a better bet for this Saturday.

Ron, I agree with you on the rubber down situation and the admission price, no catch fence in turns 1 & 2 is a concern that I have.However I found the program to move rather quickly considering all the classes and they not running sprints before?This would maybe explain the track prep?
However with this being said, we may make the trip Sat. Night.Damn gas prices went up somewhat today, oil companies suck:thumbsdown:
