Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
We had a great time at Marion SD. The track hooked every time, I had car problems first two runs. I lost to Rod Neugerbauer Sat. and Sun.

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
We have stopped for the evening in Missoula, MT. We drove 802 miles to get to Marion, 320 to get to Rapid City, then 706 today. I think it is still about another 440 miles to the track. Hopefully we will get in and parked tomorrow.
Montana was a pretty state to drive thru today. Lots of mountains, rivers running along beside the road and snow-covered mountain tops in the distance. We didn't see a lot of animals besides cows and horses, a few sheep and a fox that we almost ran over. Well, I am going to try and post a few pictures from Marion. |

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
Patsy, you guys are making good time. And having a good time. Most every racers dream I would think.
I'll take a stab at your 'colored road' question. It's most likely from crushed volcanic cinders used in the mix. At least that's what causes it around these parts. Enjoy yourselves in Seattle (Kent) and on down the road. Wished I could be there watching. |

Re: "Live" from the Western Swing
Looks like our summer finally got here,,, they're talking 80s for the weekend and mostly clear skies. I'm sure you've got a good map or a GPS, but just in case, when you get into western Washington after coming down Snoqualmie Pass and are through the North Bend area, get in that right lane so you can bail off I-90 onto Hwy 18 west, which will take you right to Pacific Raceways. Climbing up to Tiger Mtn summit on Hwy 18 can be a bear, but its smooth sailing after that,,be careful, the man with the radar gun has been known to sit on that road, waiting for racers in a hurry. I'm glad you're having a great time on your adventure,,,theres a lot of us wishing we could do the same.
See you Friday,,,,,,,Danny Durham |
