Can't....I've already committed to the World 100, and if the budget fits, I may go back to the DTWC in Bardstown....

Heck, I'm already starting a budget on a trip next year to the Knoxville Nationals and The Dream.
 
I know of a big goup of people going from St Louis, to see Ed Dixon. Mr. D will you be making thid trip too with all of us??

GOOD LUCK ED!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Sounds like a good time. Been there in the past and it is a nice place. Concerned though about the purse being cut at the big modified show there July 4th weekend. Don't know if many people would take a chance going there.
 
There will be no issues with the purse for this event. Ask Dan Schlieper, he won last year.


I seen on 4m a large group of Ed Dixon fans are coming to watch him race. I can't wait to see him at Florence!

Hope more STL area cars make the journey this year and take a chance at winning the $50,000.
