Just throwing other options out there for you guys, has anyone ever been to Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, PA? It's roughly between Allentown and Reading. It looks like they've got some great dirt track racing there, it might be worth a shot.

Check it out here:

This looks like a cool event:

Just throwing this out there. I know it's a little farther than some want to go.

150 miles each way for me. That's nearly $150 in fuel and 5 hours round trip. That will be a hard sell to the Mrs. Does Grandview have a tailgate area? From the website, it looks like they don't.

Not sure, I've never been there.

Since distance is tough for all of us, I think we're going to need to do more than one event. Just looked at the schedule for Orange County Speedway. Who could make it out on April 26th?

I'm also up for meeting up earlier and getting better spots a little closer to the track!

Anybody have a date in mind? If we wait too long it will be January again before we know it.

Steve, you're still talking about OCS in Middletown? I can probably do either weekend at this point.

August 16 should work out pretty well for me. I'm planning on being there!

Is anyone else in? The more the better!
