Sounds like a great opportunity for Farmer City Fairbury Spoon River weekend.

Have you done any upgrades to the facility in preparation for this weekend, or can we expect the same old same old? No sound from the PA in turns 1 & 2, which is premium seating. No food past intermission, and bathrooms that are not fit for human use.
I hope it works out for you, and your able to put some money into the facility, but I fell for this 3 times last year, and not once did I see any improvements.

Hey here is a thought ball bag stfu there are plenty of faults with a lot of tracks but that's no reason not to support them. I honestly believe people can find anything to bi$&h about and when they have done enough well we have a closed track and no where to go on a fri or sat night!

What is GA day of show?

[Centeroff]

No Lucas that weekend. Should draw some good cars

[Farmer City Raceway]

That's correct centeroff, the Lucas guys will be coming up to LaSalle Speedway the following thursday so maybe a few will come up early. This race last year paid 5k to win on friday and 10k on Saturday at FALS and we had about 44 cars.We have increased the purse and cut some classes from the Friday portion to help save the track and improve our efficiency.
