Actually Brent got married during Indiana Sprint Week, at Kokomo Speedway. His Mrs is very understanding of his racing. She couldn't go to Florida a couple years ago, so he went there with me, which we posted about while we were there.

Summer Nationals at Daugherty tonight, then Plymouth next Tuesday and Shadyhill next Wednesday. Might try to go to the Kings Royal.

Probably Friday night at farmer city for late models summer nationals and then going to the Friday and Saturday nights of the Kings Royal. Will be my first one. Been to Eldora for lots of late model shows and the Mopar Million. Looking forward to the Kings Royal.

Will follow the sprint week races thru the loud pedal site.

It wont matter to me,I am on call that weekend at work.

I'm not planning on going to any Sprint Week races. My interest in racing has dropped off the map,and I dont know why. Maybe burn out? The urge to go just isnt there anymore. Funny thing is I read about racing every day. When the weekend rolls around though,I am more interested in going cruising in either of the Hot Rods,instead of going to the races.

Was going to hit all of ISW but a wrench has been thrown into my plans. I like a bunch of other IOW"S hit the Bill Gardner Memorial race both nights ( great racing) but part way though Saturday night race I started hurting really bad . I was eating my pain pills but they weren't helping so Sunday morning I called my Dr. and just so happened he was on call , told him what was happening and what I had done, after my ass chewing I had a appointment with my local Dr. who informed me I'm pretty lucky I didn"t rupture my switches (I had major surgery 2 weeks before) so now my only going will be going to and from bed to the couch. I'm so bummed, I hope wherever you go I hope you"re safe and have a great time

We got married at Kokomo Sprintweek in the parking lot 8 years ago. All our friends were there, and easy for the families. Rented 2 portapotties and 2 kegs, so it was very affordable. No one had to dress up. Like I said I can't complain. Even went to Perris for our honeymoon. I hope everyone supports these tracks. Everyone always say they hate seeing tracks close, so this makes a perfect time to support them.
