    I had heard early on there was 150 signed up, but i am sure the rain didnt help . Overall the meet was handled very well, looking forward to September.
    I had always loved the Marion Co meet, but the board voted to no longer do it anymore . I had attended for 40 plus years.....We were crushed when it left the 500 track 44 years ago. The track was a huge meet at the time.
    Pretty amazing that i have been selling this stuff for almost 50 years!!!!!!!!!

    Drove up on Friday in the rain. Met up with a couple of buddies. Rain was off/on until about noon. Then sun came out. Didn't come back on Saturday, sprinkled all day.
    I miss the days at the 500 track also.
