I used to love Eldora, but simply can't justify driving 300 miles to a dust bowl or a cancelled race. However, in an interview in the new NSSN magazine, Eldora's new GM Roger Slack had some interesting comments on the track. I hope the 50 tons of composted leaves they added help it. They are also looking for "new and better clay" to add either in August or after the end of the season. You have to give him credit for trying.
It seems that the Mr. Slack is trying to address the concerns many of us have had the last few years. I really wish him success so I can return. I look forward to the comments of all the IOWers who attend this weekend. Hope you see a great race on a great track!

Can't believe I'am saying this, but I'am kinda looking forward to the Big E.Heard some good things about Roger Slack's ability to turn a track's surface problems around.If not,there's always the bar.

Me and a friend leaving from Iowa at 8am tomorrow in hopes of less dust but not confident until all new dirt is brought in. Been skipping this place for 3 years but wanted to give new mgmt. a try. Then on to the Action Track.

Never been there, hoping to go tomorrow if everything works out. I have a question. I'm not sure how many people might be coming with me, so bringing chairs for the grass is out. How are grandstands? Do they fill up pretty quick? Also where would you recommend sitting?
