TQs set to race at Greensburg Indy 33

I'm pretty sure that the mayor is no stranger to getting behind the wheel of a race car, especially on dirt. As a matter of fact, he was a pretty good wheelman in a modified and late model, if memory serves me correctly. His brother Daryl may still be racing a modified and has had a lot of success. I remember watching them quite a few times. My parents were big fans of both of them. I think that it was mainly because my mother worked with Gary (@ Gecom) and I think my father dealt with one of them (I think Daryl) through his work.

Anyhow, I'll agree! It's really great to see him and the city putting so much effort into racing! I hope this event is a success!

Sorry for being long-winded.

I've known Gary since I was a young boy. My Dad worked on his race cars and his brother Daryl drove our car. With Gary supporting this and Terry Eaglin's group running the event, it should be a great success. My son and I will be there with our car for the parade and all the events leading up to and including the race. Can't wait to see you again Gary!

We are planning to be apart of the parade and festivities on the square before we head to "The Burg." Hoping for a beautiful day!

I remember when D.H. drove Roy's #67 Late Model back in the day!

I have known Gary and Terry both, for years and promoted the SCORA Sprint Car Series race at Osgood with Terry in 2009. He was great to work with and I am sure this event will be a success!

Mayor Gary Herbert and his tourism director have put a lot of hard work and effort into this week-long event, and we certainly applaud and congratulate them for staging this motorsports-themed family event for the citizens of Greensburg and surrounding communities. Our drivers and car owners within UMRA, as well as those within the other organizations, appreciate all that the city of Greensburg has done in the past and is continuing to do to promote TQ midget racing.

Perhaps we'll even see the mayor in a TQ this weekend!

Scooter, any idea on pit pass costs, and if fuel will be available? Thanks!

SP Motorsports · 4/24/12, 3:32 PM

Its been posted that pit passes are $25.

I haven't heard anything on fuel.

Hoping this does not become an issue, but the weather isn't looking as good as it did a few days ago.

If Saturday is cancelled and moved to the rain date which is Sunday, will the car show and parade be Sunday as well or just the race?
