Were you in the stands? Including you, that means that we've located 16 of the fans who were there. We just need to track down the other 11 fans and everyone will be accounted for. :2:

They built it and no one came. Irregardless of how good of a show it was, I think they got spanked pretty good on that one so I kind of doubt you'll ever see Turkey Night at the PAS again.

I was there, although i was only 8. the only thing i remember is carole hart being pissed off after flock got disqualified.

i see no reason why the national guys wouldn't bring there cars out west to run the week before turkey night when there is a sprint car race the week before and a midget race the week after. i can only hope that guys like brad kuhn, brad loyet, bryan clauson, and many of the other traveling midget racers make it. the midget racing has been incredible at ventura this year. lets make this a memorable event.

Yes, I was with my then GF, who was bored out of her mind and regretted skipping turkey with her family to go "to this race that goes on forever."

I believe young Mr. Clarke is working on Keith to bring a car. Looking forward to coming up to Ventura if it happens.
We hope you guys can get out here. Should be a great race.

Didn't know that J.W. Mitchell was the sponsor for this race. Great news. Also, will Henry Clarke be running in a Kruseman sprint car or the one he races back East at the at the PAS and Thunderbowl?

Henry will be in a Kunz car for the West Coast races. They will be testing at Phoenix and Irwindale as well, or so I've been told.
