I own a bar in a small town in Illinois. I tended bar 10 years before I bought it and have owned it for 5 1/2 years. Everything I have is invested in it; years of seven days a week, 24 hours on the mind and I have built some equity. No one knew this was coming anytime soon and I, as well as many...
Jacksonville race track is located within the Morgan County Fairgrounds. Jacksonville used to run late models years ago (better not date myself) but let's say none of the cars looked the same, lol. They picked up a Summernationals race last year (I believe as a trial run) and have officially...
Shaheen's in Springfield used to run sprints and Late models on a weekly basis. However, I'm sure the payout would be too high to support both now. that doesn't seem to be what the new promoters are implying anyway. They said sprints will still be a part of J'ville speedway. They made no mention...
Man, that stinks! I was really looking forward to this race. Best field in the area so far scheduled to be there. Oh well. You can't win against mother nature. What did you do to piss her off, Kevin? I remember a big one getting rained out there last year too? She must be mad that you got too...

blast from the past
wow. I was only around six but I remember seeing your dad race. He was pretty good from what I remember. Thanks for the memory. If you get a chance to post any pics you get, let me know. Would love to see them.
CC, you should quit while you're behind. I think I would rather listen to Roseanne recite the complete works of Shakespeare than subject myself to any more of your dribble.
And be careful, Dirtgirl. If he DOES show us his cheeks, he might accidentally turn around too quick and we would...
The brick wall is nearly demolished from me bashing my head against it. Sorry, Debbie. You are right and they are great suggestions. I thought you were replying to me. But once again to others, and please listen this time, I am not a driver. I am not representing any driver in my suggestion. And...
Eileen, the only exposure I was referring to is the race as it happens and the drivers in it. I wasn't referring to their bios or funny stories about them, just simple acknowledgement when they do well. Their names would suffice.
And Mike, I emphasized in my submission how good a job I...
