Here is what I learned at the meeting today.

Bondurant has just signed a one year lease with the tribe. The tribe will only do one year leases, no long term. Bonderant gets their current location plus the other road race tracks on the property which includes the drag strip. The drag strip is a long straight section of one of the road race tracks. This means that to hold a drag race Bondurant will have to give the OK since they now lease it.

Lucas Oil is still in negotiations with the tribe for the lake and the off road course they built. They want a long term lease, but the tribe is not budging from their one year policy. Lucas only wants to have 2 boat drags and one off road race a year. I do not know if this will be resolved.

As far as the drag strip goes there is no new news. A few people were contacted by the tibe to see if they want to run it, but I do not know if anyone has been chosen. Charlie Allen has decided to leave all of the equipment at the strip when the track closes on 4/1/13. That means if someone wants to run it for the tribe it could open the following week. I guess the track will hire some of us to run and staff future events. Who knows!

I will let you know if I hear anything else.
