The crystal ball tells me that their is a lot of activity going on at that racing facility,IE new concession areas,restrooms ETC.
Also,the new promotor is no stranger to operating a racing facility.I can't make his full name out,as the crystal ball gets foogy,but his last name begins with a K.
I heard he was popular at Brownstown...Quote:

Amen, one the best races I ever saw was an all star sprint show at twin cities. Glad they are giving it a go and hope they get the track back in shape.Quote:

i know i'm going to get $h!t about this, but doesn't Allison own Putnamville?
joe spiker bought putanamville about 5 years ago..and has been steadily improving the place
You can't polish a turd, dirtmiester is right on !
Swami a.k.a. Jon Weber this is exactly what hurts the racing industry people who think they can see or predict the future .To clear things upTom Weatherall hasTwin Cities as a sole owner and all transactions concerning track with known saler will be finalized prior to races starting.I have been contracted to promote the track for the 2017 season it's no secret there are several people who are helping with the reconstruction but there are NOT multiple investors or advisors or special committees to direct or advice what I need to do All racing decisions or day to day operations will be handled by me as per Tom.Tom has been very supportive of the track improvements I have asked to do such as new pit shack new front gate building replacing PA speakers repairing bleachers new deep fryers in both concession stands the list goes on. We currently have 47 loads of new dirt on the grounds and 253 more to come as soon as mother nature allows.We realize a lot of people have ideas or opinions I am always willing to discuss ideas with anyone.With that being said let's ALL make Twin Cities great againThanks Tim Keithley Promoter Twin Cities 2017812-569-1982
Thanks for the clear up. Good luck to all!
I have always kinda liked this place, hopefully it gets going well this year.
Any idea of a schedule or a night you will be racing on?
Throw up some pics when you get a chance too please.
I was there once a few years back and I Saw very good potential for the track just seemed the track needed to be worked in just a little bit more. Good luck and hope to make it down soon
I really hope the season is a success for this place! I haven't been to many races here for a lot of years. Used to run on Fridays and that was good for drivers/fans I believe (Not everyone can run on Saturday). Looks like some upgrades may be on their way. However, If you want a good facility, a good place to start is the restrooms... I can't believe how overlooked this can be sometimes... many families won't come if restrooms don't feel at least somewhat sanitary (working order/cleaned and monitored).
Was wondering if you guys could put up a large partition in the first turn to block out the sun????
:):):) Maybe plant some Redwoods???
The sun is a problem in turn 1, unless they have rotated the track. lolQuote:

From what I have seen, Mr. Keithley has already started out right. Just cleaning the place up is a big start. Hope this place sees more cars come through the front gate this year.
Seen they have added new dirt.
Yeah like 60 loads, It'll take at least 600 to make a differenceQuote:

Might need to possibly think about moving the pumps upstream a bit to take advantage of the sand free water.
K? Oooohhh It's KING!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahaahahahaaaaa :)Quote:

Scrying or Crystal Ball Gazing
The First thing to consider is atmosphere. Its considered best to practice crystal ball gazing in a very dimly lit room and possibility with incense burning in the background. The mix of light and shadow with the aroma of incense helps to provide the stage of the imagination to paint pictures that will emanate between the crystal ball and user.
Lighting
It is typical to use a candle that is set behind the user. This helps to shade the light from the crystal ball, providing only the minimal of additional lighting to the crystal ball. Some users will prefer to use a coloured candle. Coloured candles of course have their own frequency (dictated by the colour of the candle). If this is your choice then blue, or purple are good.
Incense
You can use any of course just as you can with the candle, however there is something to be said for tradition. Traditionally people use Frankincense, Sandalwood, or Sage.
Preparation
Preparing for any Psychic or spiritual practice requires one to adopt a frame of mind. Understand this; the conversation of the spirit is very quiet and subtle and can not be heard through the noise and din of the conscious mind, (our thinking mind). To receive knowledge, information through increased awareness requires one to use their subconscious mind; the silent partner to our conscious mind. Therefore we need to allow our selves, a period of quiet, reflective, solitude.
Give your self time to allow the day to drift away before attempting to use the crystal ball. Relax, pray for guidance, meditate, or even take a relaxing bath. Be calm, be at peace, and cultivate a positive gentle disposition. Put all your troubles and concerns away and drift to a peaceful place.
Expectation
What should we expect, what shall we see, what will happen?
To be honest, you should also try to leave this aside, expectation is not helpful. It means that you are looking for something and possibly looking for something in particular. Expectation is the commodity that the person having a reading should carry, not the reader. The reader must be clear. Clear of any expectations….. “You will see, what you see and no more.” Your spirit knows the answers, you probably don’t even know the questions.
Practice
The practice of crystal ball gazing is very, very simple but the perfection of the practice is very hard. It requires discipline in the first instance. Discipline over the noise of the conscious mind, and patience of the self, and the loss of all expectation. When you feel ready to begin then follow this simple exercise.
After lighting the room and incense, having some personal preparation time sit comfortably with the crystal ball held in both hands. The candle lit behind you will allow you to see into the crystal slightly. Stare into the crystal ball for a few minutes and allow your eyes to adjust. Notice how the crystal ball affects your vision and allow a feeling of connection between you and the crystal ball to grow. When you feel that there is a connection, a stirring within you, then place the crystal ball its stand. Your ready to begin.
The crystal ball should be sitting on a stand in front of you now. Your gaze into the crystal ball should at a comfortable height. Stare into the crystal ball, and do not blink, do not look away, keep your gaze. Your gaze may take a very long time, so be patient. Allow you mind to become as the crystal, clear.
As you gaze a mist should form. The mist forms when the connection between you, the crystal ball and your subconscious mind is made. Once the mist is present, HOLD STILL…the door is opening, keep your gaze and keep calm and if need be make a gentle inner smile. The mist will clear, as you allow your self to drift into the crystal ball, and pictures will form.
You may see pictures that that you did not expect, images can be powerful and resemble inner natures, or the nature of an issue. A single picture could reveal a complete situation and carry a powerful feeling. It is important not to try to make sense of the pictures during the session, this will only lead to the breaking of concentration and forming of misconceptions about the images, just let the images flow, one to another. If a picture paints a thousand words then these images will need some careful consideration after the session has ended.
Eventually the images will fade, dissipate and dissolve. You may feel very tired and in need of a glass of water. Once the pictures start to fade, allow them to.
Record
Now that the images have faded, take a drink of cold water to refresh you and to help brake the connection. Now is a good time to record what you have seen. Take a piece of paper and get writing. Write all that seems relevant.
Note
Crystal ball gazing requires a lot of practice indeed, it may take several attempts. Be patient with your self. The process involved is really very simple, you allow your mind to be as quiet, and as clear as the crystal ball it’s self. In doing so, we allow our selves to access our subconscious mind and see more of our selves, and our world. The crystal ball acts as screen for the images.
The subconscious mind is highly receptive, it accepts all that it feels, sees, and hears without any of the restraints that our conscious mind has. It’s amazing that we don’t even know, what we know. The subconscious absorbs everything we come into contact with and files it all away.
It’s because of this level of receptivity that same side of us; our subconscious connects to our higher selves, and in turn to the super-conscious, or collective conscious.
Clayton-Clayton,Clayton! Remember you got your phony,(IMITATION) crystal ball from a fire sale on E-Bay.Now! the true crystal ball is sending (VIBES) indicating that the list of examples that you describe above,maybe somewhat true.However,the example (PREPARATION,)adopting a frame of "MIND".Clayton you must of used too much PREPARATION (H)
Now now Swami, don't be so insanely jealous!!!!
I can help you become an actual Swami and will help you find a real crystal ball. When you finally come to grips with reality, just PM me!!!
Don't let me or 4M down!!
Didn't you know they are trying to be the Eastbay of Indiana? LOLQuote:
