Glad you enjoyed your time in Texas. ASCS is always a good show and Devils Bowl knows how to run a show. For those of you who have never been there, the back stretch is elevated. You run uphill in 1&2 and downhill in 3&4. Makes the backstretch real easy to see from the stands.

Lanny has a nice place down there have been there once myself and thought it was a great place and the racing was excellant to.Just one question how did you like the on-off ramps there on the freeways in Texas that makes it real interesting driving.If I remember correctly the night I was there Frankie Kerr put the Mcbride/Schoff 23 into the trees that used to be on the back stretch they had to pick him out of the tree.

I was there the night the 23 was in the tree. Seems like it was 12 or 13 years ago. The trees are no longer there. The pits are now located where the trees were. Seems like the entry ramps on the freeway are the same as those in Indiana? The difference is the access road located next to the freeway. I do not remember those in Indiana.

i was there for a outlaw and champ car race in 83-84 .there was so many cars they were pitting off the end of turns 1and 2. there was a big wreck going into turn one and a sprinter went off the end airborne.
