Larry and Patsy,
I hope whatever is going on West of Salina on I70 is over before you get there. All traffic was diverted, it was a 30 mile excursion North and past the Ellsworth exit. Be safe Sean

Re: “Live” from Great Bend, KS 2019 LODRS
If you ain't never been here you need to put it on your list. It's a unique felling you get when you stage you car in the same place as racers did at the first US Nationals. There's a lot of things to like at this well cared for historical track. For the "pit snobs", Don are you listening, pits are concrete. Electric service is $50 for the weekend, first come first serve. On site dump station. Friendly folks and "town" is five minutes away. A lot to like.

Re: “Live” from Great Bend, KS 2019 LODRS
Well it is another warm day here in Great Bend. 88 now going up to 91. Tech has started and test and tune is from 2-6. Larry is going to try out his new brake line and make sure everything works. It is only about a mile shut down area here, so I am sure he will get stopped before the end. It is really windy too. Larry Deforrest said putting up his awning in 16 mph wind was challenging! I took a few pictures that I will post later. Lots of rigs here and more still pulling in.
