BONNE TERRE, Mo. -- Big River Sand Drags will host the inaugural Midwest Nationals this Saturday and Sunday (Sept. 3-4) with racers from all over the Midwest expected to be participating.

I hear ya Hillbilly. I have been struggling with the decision on go or not to go all week. Christ, with the price of gas, its going to be costly just to get there, let alone the other expenses. I should be there as well. I hate to say it, but I am kind of glad racing season is almost over. Maybe by next spring things will have settled down a bit and we can put a little more of what used to be expendable cash back where it belongs. I hope we have a good turnout with all that is going on right now. Cya bud!
