Word of caution---HEADS UP---- If you go out driving around in either East St Louis---ILLINOIS or ST Louis--- MISSOURI--- ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT be extra careful lots of bad neighborhoods in both areas--- you can get into trouble real quick --low income and desperate folks will think nothing of robbing you---If you are not sure about an area ask BEFORE you go!!! Not trying to scare you just telling you like it is--Have fun good luck at the races BE SAFE!!!---FED 387

Thanks for the warnings!!

There are quite a few rigs that have pulled in this afternoon ! They are supposed to pull us in starting at 7 am. I haven’t seen any NHRA officials around here today. Still no numbering! There are 2 lanes and supposedly there are going to take turns with each lane. I guess we will see in the morning!

Mr Larry & Mrs Patsy,
When you get to Ennis, there is a really good BBQ place Pit Stop just a couple of miles from track just west on main highway.
There are several good mexican restaurants in Waxahachie and in Ennis as well.
See you guys at both Nationals!
Don't get your hopes up for Noble, OK!

Good luck guys and I look forward to the reports and racing action although I will miss you all here in the Southeast flood tour.

Larry & Patsy, It's seems like forever since you did an "on the road" tour thread. I've always liked them.Really looking forward to your reports, racing and otherwise.
Best of luck and be safe. Get a wally or 2.

Weather report, hot and humid high 95 with a heat index of 103. Friday's should be cooler but with a higher chance of r r r rain.

I was going to wax on the trailer today but.......
