“Live” from US Nationals 2018
So it is that time of year again! We are still in Bowling Green going in to round 2 this morning! But we need reports on what is happening at Indy!! Stacking is supposed to begin at noon today. I wonder how many rigs are there circling now? So if you are there, let us know what is going on!!

Re: “Live” from US Nationals 2018
According to my sources about 25ish rigs on high ground on west side and grounds had about a 5 hour rain yesterday. I think a few are on SE gate apron. I am on a PAVED I 70 rest area 20 minutes from track as I got my "toter offroading ticket" punched 2 years ago in the south ditch. When I get the code word "Farton" text, I roll. Stay tuned. Phish
PS I would have posted yesterday but I did not want Pasty to "light me up!" |

That would have been ok !! I wouldn’t even know how to light you up!! LOL
I saw on Facebook last night that Don Kennedy is up there somewhere ! I guess he had a quick recovery from when he left here at Bowling Green before first round because he wasn’t feeling well!! Just thinking about the Big Go is healing ! Patsy |

Re: “Live” from US Nationals 2018
Hello everyone,
We are here and they are stacking us in the pro staging lanes and pits. Lots of rain here yesterday, the regular stacking area is to soft today. Parking is supposed to begin on Tuesday. There are about 120 rigs here, and its hot and humid. |

Re: “Live” from US Nationals 2018
OK grounds are wet so parking in BRAND NEW staging lanes. Filled pro side first and we are in sportsman side (#86), which is now full. Sequence numbers are jumbled as a west road rig was stuck and held up the show. Kinda' intense on 136 for a while. I could have drove right in at noon. SO now they are on rig 120 and they are parking on north side of pro pit area. You can drive right in. Phish
Bring ice and beer because your going to need Dyno/Phish mower. |

Everyone be on the lookout for a black and white cat that escaped from Bobby and Carolyn Howard in stacking! I have a picture on Facebook that I will try to post when we get there! Contact them or Mark and Elaine Nowicki
