    The party life is dead, and has been for about the last 10 years. There's hardly anyone left walking around the campgrounds about an hour after the races are over. The law makes sure the place is on lockdown.
    That is good news.

      I’ve never camped there. Stay in hotel in Richmond IN. Been to every Dream since 07 and a couple worlds and a kings royal. Never had a bad time at that place. It is and will always be a special place. The Mecca of dirt late model racing.

        chupp n bloomer fan: While I know neither of us are Tony fans, as an owner/promoter, he has cleaned up Eldora. Way more of a police presence. Way less BS.

        By no means am I saying everyone is swearing on a stack of bibles and honest Abe’s, but it is noticeably better.
        I don't doubt what you say, cnbf, and it's great to hear that things have improved, or at least it appears that way. I would never discourage anyone from attending or camping at Eldora, in fact, we still renew our tickets to the World Hundred and I may attend another one sometime in the future. Our group camps at Eldora during the 4 Crown with no problems at all.

        I was just pointing to the OP first hand experience as to what can happen and to exercise proper precautions. Take if from someone that knows, if you, or someone in your group gets a couple of thousand dollars worth of your stuff lifted it tends to seriously diminish the experience. Twice is a deal breaker!!

          So you can’t go back to the dream or world because of theft but the 4 crowns are ok? Just typical open wheel arrogant comments from you

              Yep, and it's evident that it gets under your skin and your perception of arrogance confirms mission accomplished. Just value added to posting on good ol' 4m! Hahahahaha!

              I'd be willing to wager throughout the course of the season we attend, on average, at least as many and probably more dirt late model races than you do. But, forget I said that, I'd rather piss you off!f LOL!

                  CIRF,
                  It’s people like you that have ruined 4-m with your negativity & bitterness towards others !
                  “THINK ABOUT IT” - Does it REALLY pleasure you ?

                    I hear you.

                    And I’m not trying to defend you, but I see you ruffled the flock. This is for and somewhat against your position.

                    The 4 Crown doesn’t draw anywhere near the people that The World 100 does. Only comparable race at Eldora is the Kings Royal. So by comparison, the 4 Crown should certainly have less aholes. There’s less people, the more people there are, the more ignorance and thieving that is going to happen.

                    But I understood your point too. You attend the 4 Crown with no issues, and twice had sh!t stolen at The World 100. Would leave a poopy taste in my mouth too.

                      I live 15 minutes away and stay in my own bed every night after all of the Big E's races.

                            If I had a nickle for every time someone asked how to block a certain someone on here, I'd start up my own dirt late model team. It is pretty pathetic.
                            Get ready. I'm sure the 2nd grade name calling response is coming

                              Take a trail cam or two with you and put them in unnoticeable places. A picture could be worth 1000 words.

                                Well, to be honest it’s really easy. Click on their name, go to their profile, and add to ignore list. But, I just clicked on you for an example and I can’t block you, grayed out. But, Wisconsin guy I can. No idea. They seem to have fixed some of the weirdness that was going on here though with quoting someone, and editing something you misspelled etc.
