I have heard the same about Florida in the summer. After being here for a season the weather wasnt as bad as most say. I sure beats the heck out of snow and ice with freezing temps all winter long !


That's what I'm talking about. I rather it be 103 degrees everyday then 33 degrees everyday. Hell, down here in Louisiana, weather is so nice to us, we race 12 months a year.

Well, to each their own. I spent my basic and AIT in Fort Polk, La. in 1971 starting in May. Great place to go for jungle training. There were days it got so hot and humid that the army would actually back down on the training. -----------John

It was hotter than that in the Nam. I remember building bunkers in 115 degree heat. Some guys wished we would get hit so we could get down in our holes for some shade.....LOL
If ya cant stand the heat then get out of the kitchen !

Been there , Done that ! Fort Polk was great for building you up for the even greater experience. The heat I learned to handle but the humidity at times was indescribable. Did not think the human body could sweat as fast as when I was in Nam. A diet of water and salt pills. LOL

I think these guys that bought Memphis are going to be a player in the motorsports world. I heard they were looking at St. Louis also.

They took PBIR and turned it around. If they dump the same money into it I wouldn't be surprised if they could do the same with MMP.

I think a Nitro Jam might be in order maybe in late September.
