I'm debating making the ride in from Pittsburgh. Would probably stay overnight and head right into the office Monday. If I decide to I will leave my contact info.

By the time you fill your tank 6 times, you could probably afford a plane ticket from Little Rock to SDF.

No way I'm going to try and talk you out of it, 'Zig, you gotta do it and be here!

I drive 14 hours out to WY or NM all the time, piece of cake! Just get a friend to come with.

I have lucky underwear. Lucky underwear, good.

I just don't want to know that someone has worn their lucky underwear since Sumwon's last race!

Hat? Lucky hat - good!

This place is cavernous. The courtyard area between the grandstands and the paddock is easy to find. There is a statue of Aristides in a small green space. Also a budlight stand close by. What do you think?
