Thanks for the info miledirt Getting excited for my first trip to the historic "Magic Mile!"

It always was my favorite mile to race on and a great fair and great horse racing all week before sun!

The Tobias & Parson runs were certainly something to see. Since the State of Illinois installed the lights, this has become a must see race for me. Being a native of Southern Illinois, I spent some time there watching the day races of yester years and since they went to the evening race the track has held up much better. Kelly & I plan on being there for all of the action again this year. Hope to meet some new IOW folks as well.

Really looking forward to the race also. Going to have my first crew chief experience with my brother in law Jon Sciscoe getting the opportunity to run a champ dirt car for the first time. Haven't had a chance to go for probably ten years for always taking a sprint car to Haubstadt but it should be a great night and will be fun to run with my grandpa galen and the boys who have provided a wealth of knowledge to our effort. Anyone interested in sponsoring a nice looking race car would be greatly appreciated for the event but we will give the best effort possible either way. See everyone there.

The first night race was the only DuQuoin race I've missed since birth. It was a rain-out and I was out of town on vacation with my grandparents on the rain-date.

My first ever race was September 4, 1989-- 9 months and one day after I was born. Dad's birthday is September 4th, so he got to take me to the races for his birthday present.

Turn 1 bleechers...Jon Stanborough blasting into 1, ALL CROSSED UP lap after lap a few years ago. I held my breath every time he came into sight!

you guys are lucky lol... making me jealous... only the second year of my life so 20 years that ive missed duquoin, the other i was at boot camp, seen some good stuff Kasey Kahnes win in the Zaronian 67 JP's charge couple years ago, Tobias's charge god that was a show, Stevie Reeves win in what was it 92?

Yes, that was a great run! I don't know how I could forget JP. He was always one of my favorites.

sargent had the track packed so hard last year even JP
couldn't make the high side work. i'm going though to support sc racing
with hopes of a better promoter in the future. also ,usac should'nt
schedule anything in indiana the night of springfield next year i'm sure
the race at lawrenceburg affected the crowd. in this economy they need
to be really careful about booking against themselves next year. should try
to get midgets or sprints in illinois next year to so they can support each other
not take away from each other. support events around duqoin would be nice too.
in 1995 the sprints ran granite city the nite before duqoin so i decided to skip the
nationals at angell park in order to go to those two races for the first time but i wouldn't
have done that for only duqoin.
