25 is rather impressive!
That is truly impressive. I had a streak of 8 in a row from 2000-2007 as well as a half dozen Winter Nationals shows from 1992-99 but that pales in comparison to your streak. In 51 years of attending races, still the latest night I ever spent at a race was at East Bay in the early 2000s when the show ran until 2:40 AM (no rain delay). I think they were still HAT shows back then. So much fun and great memories we had in February by the bay.
FastEd95 Thats not late used to be Shadybowl Speedway got done every week at 3 or 4 a.m. and been at Eldora for the 2006 4 crown when they had rain and bad wrecks and did not get done it 7:10a.m. and many World 100 on Friday when the last Non Qualifier was over at 3a.m.
Considering it. Weather permitting. I'm not driving the motorhome from Missouri to East Bay if there is snow predicted along the route.
Hoping to get there this being the last hurrah for the place. Haven't been there since the 80's. We lose another one, but it will never be forgotten.
The final 4 will be at east bay in 2024.

I'd almost say a person was not really a TRUE dirt race fan if they haven't done that a few times. Hone for breakfast . . . those were the days!
EastBay will not be the final 4 race. It will be the last race before the finals (DTWC will again be the finals)
I'm planning on being there ... i've not been 25 years in a row but i'm on a streak .. i had to miss a year occassionally due to work over the years.
I’ll be there. Maybe about my 15th one. I’m lucky to live only an hour away. I’m going tomorrow night……..for the second to last weekly show there. Starting next summer it will be a heck of a drive if I want to see any dirt track racing.
Ive only missed a couple since 1996.
Seen a lot of great races at that place and ate alot of great strawberry shortcake!
Was one of me and my dads racing get aways! Miss those days!
fwiw.......theres a slight chance it stays open. Thats straight from the horses mouth!
