Me too !!

I will be sitting up high on the turn four end. It is where most of the spotters sit. It is cool because you can pick up some interesting tidbits from them. Hope to see some of you guys there.

Kyle Steffens of St Charles ,MO will make his return behind the wheel of the Hartenstein #65 .

Um that isn't an acceptable excuse Poor guy (the groom) throwin his life away like that. Talk him out of it and make a bonzai run to Springfield.

I'll be there about 8am at the track. Plan on hitting Macon.
Best Regards,
John

I'll be there crewing for Nix's #43.

sprntr, the partying sounds great. Pack a few Pepsi's for me. Yeah, non drinker here but my goofy antics make up for that.

Richie, make sure you don't miss hot laps, because they are incredible. A cushion builds up and they really haul it in the turns. Some people said they weren't even lifting last year. Forecast this morning says sunny and 73 Saturday, looks good.
