Hey Pat. Still looking for a house close to Speedworld?

ss wannabee · 12-08-2013, 01:01 PM

What happened there? Is this the place that would run all night?

The Hawk · 12-08-2013, 01:17 PM

Hate seeing the small tracks close.

I was race director out there and we did have a couple all nighters or almost. The mud bog arena would have the all nighters and when the hangovers wasn't so bad the participants would leave the next morning.

Jeff, he may be talking about when Bob Curly had the track. We spent many, many all nighters. And had a great time racing and bench racing after the lights were turned off!

Had a lot of fun at that track! Curly was the best, he always let us run our street racers out on his track and treated us with respect, and boy he take pride in his track prep, you will be missed Bob.

That is why it is still called "Bob's World"! Man, I miss seeing Bob Cratchet driving around in that old chevy truck.

Bob would see me in the pits and come up and say: "Mark that tracks got teeth tonight, take advantage of it"
