Guys,and Girls,
I would like to propose a GTG that I believe would have something for everyone. Best part is no of us have to plan or run it.
For the past 3 years Jesse Martin(OrangeRT),Chris Marion(WhiteDak99),and Bill Bratton(Twisted R/T) have attended the "Bowler Transmission Track Day". This is a two day event the third weekend in July. It is held at Mid America Airport in Lawrenceville IL. For reference that is just across the stateline from Vincennes IN.
The cost to register is $25.00... $35.00 if you are going to autox. I will say IMO the autox is the best part.
For your registration you will receive on Saturday: a goodie bag, a cruise-in/cruise(this is usally missed by those who autox), and autox. I usually get about 15-20 runs in. For Sunday you get a judged car show,drag racing for time(no head to head), a meal ticket for two people to eat. There are usually vendors set up selling eats as well, door prizes,ans awards.
We (the afor mentioned trio) get a hotel room in Vincennes for Satuday night.So that after a long day of autox we go somewhere for a good meal, then sit around and bench race,and just relax.
I/we have tried to get others to attend this event in the past. It would be awesome to have the Dak/Durango folks make this an annual deal.
I will post info as it becomes available to me.
Bill

This is a great idea Bill.....Get the info out early!!!!

This is a Kick Ass fun weekend guys. I came up this past year fresh out of school that Saturday morning and still got to run autox...until I got sick for the lack of not eating all day and the heat. Still had a blast. LOL:drive:

I'm in. I grew up only a few miles away, have no idea how I've never heard of this. Gives me an excuse to get back home for a weekend.

If you guys in IN are serious, I would be happy to meet up and we can convoy down. I know where the airport is.

I'm serious. We could convoy up from Southern IN, should try to get a few other locals to get in on it.

Forget having a hotel room in Vincennes, how about having your own house there? My family has one for sale on First St currently; beautiful views of the George Rogers Clark Memorial. Buy, buy, buy!!!
