Wolfe-e,

You might not know the answer to my question, but perhaps someone else does. A schedule was posted on here some time back. Was that somewhat speculation or was that the final version? I know that USAC has posted their dates on line but I am interested in the motorcycle race and AMA doesn't show anything on their schedule. Any information would be helpful. Thanks.

Here's what I have heard unofficially. The official version will be out on Friday at the press conference. There have been some adjustments to the preliminary version of the schedule you made reference to. Look for the September motorcycle date to be replaced with a big modified race (Wolfe-e style) in September.

Mud Packer, Its kinda like this. Some things I know, some I just think but I really don;t have the "official version" and It would be better if I don;t speculate to much..... I have talked with Mike King about a Big Modified Race and those talks have been positive. I just don;t want to say to much until the Press Conference.... I can say that these guys do have some Big Plans and they are looking more long term. I think they realize that it will take time and work to turn things around...... Like most of you, I'm anxious to see racing back at my favorite Race Track........... Oh and Mike did say that they have hired someone to get a Website back up......... Wolfe-e

The news is in the words Clabber Girl !!!

Mike and crew will make the announcement there means Terre Haute and the Family is behind them. Only good can happen with that connection. Thanks to all who put the deal together.
