    Seems a odd place to put your equipment when you had days notice of possible flooding.

    It will come across as being crappy, but with Peoria flooded and LaSalle not paying UMP points, car counts/racing at FALS will be even better.

    All, Just a tiny strip of black dirt up along the wall on one end. Outside has a tiny strip of grass where all the equipment is parked.

    Some could see it as karma for jumping on the Lasalle date.

    We will be ready by Summer Nationals this has happen before and they had the track ready in 2-3 weeks in 2009. In 2013 it destroyed everything so everything had to be torn down and cleaned up and so on. The concession trailers where pulled out before it got bad so we have to get the water pumped and some clean up and we will have Peoria Speedway back alive.

    Good Luck, I hope you have it back to normal quickly.

    Looks like they learned from the last 10 times.. and set it up so they could get the concession trailers out.. They are a new thing, and stopped rebuilding the Brick ones...
    Nice to see them looking a head on that...

    Looks like Fairbury and Spoon will benefit from Peoria's misfortune. Look for big car counts at these two tracks till Peoria is back up and running. I think Peoria will be back up and running in two weeks if not before.

    There is a lot to that Karma business. Too bad they don't have a Karma store, like a flower shop where you can have Karma delivered the same day.
