I vist there every year for the amusement park there. Also its only about 30-45 minutes from Tri State Speedway (Arguably the best 1/4 dirt track in the nation)

Good luck with the move, It's a quiet town, The hoot owls may keep you up at night

Welcome to Indiana when you get here. I am about 30 minutes from Santa Clause. I'm also curious what brings you to Indiana?

A nice, quiet town to live in. The only thing bad about the place is Tri-State Speedway is the only close racetrack. You'll have to do some drivin to get to most races. Welcome to the great state of Indiana.

I'm in Evansville, about 45 min from Santa Claus. Tri-State Speedway (Haubstadt) is probably the best prepped and ran dirt track in the country. Tommy Helfrich is a track preppin wizzard. Some drivers don't like it because it is lightening fast all of the time, but as far as a fan is concerned, none better...Period... You will see for yourself. Don't let any one else tell you anything different. There a couple of other po-dunct tracks around, but nothing compared to Haubstadt.

I'm movin because I was layed off here in Phoenix almost a month ago along with 20 thousand other people and cannot find any work. My dad who lives in Palm Beach FL owns a warehouse in Rockport IN and can put me to work there. The only reason for livin in Santa Claus is cuz he has a buddy that lives there that Ill be stayin with. So theres really nuthin to do around there??? Not even a little hole in the wall beer joint?
