    There's a ride that day that interferes with this for me. Too bad, flat track racing is a blast to watch.

    It looks like this has been cancelled with rumors of rescheduling in Oct?

    I will be headed up north for a week of trail riding. Today is packing day so I will be missing the race. Hope the track stays dry.

    Off to Elkhorn on my '82 cb900c. Look for a gray/black custom tank with a black bag on the back! Then buy '81 XS650! :D

    I almost [did!] forget!! I just had a neighbor call and remind me. We're off. Better get going.
    Looks like a perfect day. The track should be dry enough, we'll know soon enough.
