"Live" from Earlville, IA, Division 5 Lucas Oil race

Larry Hill · 09-09-2011, 11:53 AM

I don't have very good internet service here, but I will do my best. 70 something cars went down 1st pass. The air is about 2000'. A gorgeous day here in the middle of the cornfields of Iowa! Lots of stick cars here. We didn't go as quick as I thought we would, so he is re-jetting from Indy. Hopefully we will go a little better next run. They are running super stock now. More later.

Hey Larry is Edmond there?

Larry Hill · 09-09-2011, 02:05 PM

If Edmond is here, he did not go down in Stock either run. We just ran #2, so we are done for the day. I will try to get out and take some pics this afternoon. We picked up just a little that run. We also have a headwind.

The track is having a Racer dinner tonight, so we thank them for that.

More later.

I've seen both of those cars in person. Mighty fine pieces of machinery they have! Nice wheels up shot of Larry's car! Good luck to all!!

Just a quick thanks to Cal Method for helping out Andy on the starting line today

Greatly appreciate his help in my absence

Curious observation is the tremendous lack of CJs and DPs

We are there and so is Bo Butner - in the east I see Dave Thomas and Bo Kinney are running

Must be at least 25 to 30 cars not running

Why are we there - we can least afford it - oh I forgot we are addicted to racing - LMAO

:-) peace

Here are some pics from the bluff beside staging lanes. This is a full 360 degrees of the track and surrounding property. As mentioned elsewehere, track is downhill, shutdown uphill, return road downhill and staging lanes downhill. This is a neat facility. They also have a RV park with hookups that many of the racers take advanatge of. Nice concession area and shower house. Nice spectating area.
