I'm that guy that is going to go watch the taxi cabs at Kentucky Speedway. Go Larson!
Haven't ruled out going to the Burg Sunday, but it is somewhat doubtful. I'm only 27, but I ain't as young as I once was and its hard to get up for work after a night at the track.
Planning on Bloomington and Tri-State to watch the conclusion of Sprintweek!

Sorry to hear this friend but you have to listen to the Doctor. There's plenty of racing to be had this year and many years to come. I'll send you some videos. 😊

My nephew is coming up from Fort Campbell, so we can do ALL of Indiana Sprint Week. Hoping to meet and see as many IOW members as possible. As always will be seating in Section A at "The Burg." Our base camp will be the southside of Indy. Still have to work a little each day during the week. Hope the weather is good for each night. Have been talking about doing all of sprint week for years, this is THE YEAR . Safe travel to all from where ever in the world your coming from to the great state of Indiana.

Get yourself healed up even if you have to miss the rest of the season; your health is more important than any auto race. We are all looking forward to seeing a healthy Jim at the races and that might not happen if you don't listen to the doctor.

Going to the UMP Summernationals Herald & Review 100 at Mighty Macon Speedway Thursday July 7th to watch the late model mud cabs and mortifieds. The H & R 100 is generally one of the best races on the Summernationals schedule and the only 100 lapper.

Going to Terre Haute and Putnamville for their ISW races (stoked up for those two!).

On the 15th we'll go to Fairbury American Legion Speedway camping area with the camper and hangout Friday night and Saturday during the day then go to the POWRi National Midgets/late model mud cabs/mortifieds on Saturday night.

Really hope the weather is good for all four events. We live less than an hour from Faribury and POWRi has been scheduled at Fairbury each of the past 2 years in mid-July and we haven't seen a race yet due to rainouts and not being rescheduled.

Silver Crown Championship Dirt Cars properly driven on a one mile dirt track are classic poetry in motion. Using that analogy, Jack Hewitt is one of the greatest poets of all time.
