I think Chase, Kurt Gross and I are coming to watch. I just can't miss this one. Of the races that I have won the Dick Gaines Memorial means more than any of them to me. For me its not the amount of money it is winning a race in honor of such a great driver. So I cherish my Dick Gaines Memorial, Sheldon Kinser Memorials, and Mike Johnson Memorials more than all the big paying races even though they all paid decent it was never about the money. So who ever wins this thing Saturday cherish the race not the money. Dick Gaines was a legend one of the best to ever strap into a sprint car. Most drivers competing Saturday probably never got to see him race take my word be glad he isn't racing today because you would have one tough customer to deal with. Good luck to all and see you all there.

Someone pick a time and a place.

Always up for seeing friends I hadn't met previously

There are IOW folks all over the place. Many prefer the turn 4 end. Some like the turn 2 grandstand. Some park along the backstretch. Others just tailgate all night in the parking lot.

That said, I'm up, and I'm sure my "A" friends would agree, to meet and greet anywhere on the premises.

Dave's office might be nice.

I am hoping to make it but unsure at this time. I got in a fight with Mike Tyson and had to have reconstructive surgery on my ear yesterday, but will be there if at all possible.

Any truth to the rumor that Mike Tyson was in the intensive care unit?
