Kevin or Bradly, or a "Local Joe in the know".

I'm taking a half day and blasting down to Indy on Friday afternoon. When will we be able to get into the track on Friday?

It was posted earlier that practice would be from 3:00 to 10:00. Murphy, Darrald, Richard Devroeg, and myself are heading down also.

Yes doors open at 3pm on Friday....also dont forget that Indy is 1 hour ahead of us. I just made a trip past Indy about 3 weeks ago and there wasnt any road work on 65 until you get close to Indy for about 5 miles....and the Speedlimit is 70 for most of it.....see ya Saturday!!!

We do not require the use of lipo bags...our facility is huge and we've always let it be the racers decision.

Default Friday night practice.

I made it to the host location here in Indy about 7:30pm. I spent most the time tonight wrenching. However I did get some early photos. Here is one of the track from evening practice.



Very nice facility here! You should be here tomorrow.

Snowy.
