"Live" from the Summitt Ice Cream Nationals at Norwalk

Larry and Patsy...good luck getting it completed and on the road, hopefully trouble on the road will mean trouble free at the track. One suggestion would be that you add an avatar of your AARP Cuda to your signature..Jack, Toby, etc are raising the bar and wouldn't want you to miss out on all the live reporter bonus money! Actually, I told Larry at Bowling Green that my favorite picture you've posted is Larry with his grandkids at your lake...helps put things in perspective.

Wish I could have made it...but know you will keep us posted.

Generator is back up and running with no exhaust leaks. We will be back on the road as soon as Larry gets some of the black off!

We're here! We're here! For you coming in from the south, whenever we got off at exit 176 (US 30) they were doing construction and we could not go west, so we went east, then off on Koogle Road and back west from there. Then on to Route 13. They are still pulling everyone in thru Linders Lot on the right, then taking 5 rigs at a time across the road to the track. They said they will continue parking tonight until everyone who is here by 6 gets parked. Haven't heard whether tech will stay open later. It is bright and sunny and hot here. I will post more after we get inside. It doesn't appear to be very muddy.

Do not get off at Rt 30, go on up to Rt 250 Ashland exit (on I-71), trust me I've lived here all my life and its way faster.

Well we are in and parked and teched. Tech worked a little late and we got thru including getting our credentials. A little clue since it will probably be pretty rushed to get thru and run in the morning if you are in stock--be sure and take your printed ticket with you and it will save you a trip going back across the track to get it. Lots of people here. We are packed out in the back forty on the main road. Come by to see us. They park spectators out here, too, but hopefully there won't be any problems. We go out 1st in the morning at 9. The weather isn't looking great. It is calling for storms tonight and 60% chance tomorrow. I will go out tomorrow armed with the camera. Right now it is bedtime!
