GATEWAY is packed with haulers. The NHRA knows how to do it. The track and staging are full of racers waiting for qualifying tomorrow. Its good to see a racing facility with the pits full.

The weather is perfect. If you are coming to Little Belleville for Saturdays POWRi, leave early and stop by GATEWAY for the afternoon.

Leave the drag strip, 55 to Illinois 3 , through Columbia Il, to 158 to the track. On the other side of the river, PEVELY is running a big modified race. 55 into St. Louis, then South to Pevely Mo.

Thank you for coming, stay safe and see you at Belleville.

I think I would take 55/70 to 255 to 15 to 159 to go from Gateway to Belle Clair.

If you're heading south to Pevely, taking I-255 makes way more sense than dealing with the construction mess from the new approaches being built for the new Stan Musial Bridge.

Even Roman Chariots ran non-wing, and on dirt. Hail Caesar!

You will be surprised with the improvements with the construction area near the exit to GATEWAY off of 55.

Any route is a good route to get to Belleville.

Sir, you need to look at a map. Columbia is not on any rational route between Gateway and Belleville.
