view 145 at 2 hours in, the rebirth of an old ledgend we dont see tracks reborn very often looks like an interesting track though and not much banking so they really got to drive it, I think terre haute has more banking from the look of it here.
It was great to see the rebirth of a track I had been going to since the 1970s. Your right about the banking. I'm not sure if I will make Saturdays race but I wasn't going to miss the first night back.
@@thetravelingunderwood yea maiden runs dont come very often anymore, and on dirt tracker daily there was talk of possible rework of the layout or working on the creek and bridges and so on so maybe we see it widen out from the sort of egg shape we see right now, I got to see first night comp at circle city in indy at the county fairgrounds there, it was rough and rocky but it was fun and won by tyler courtney who was born and raised in indy making him not only a hoosier but a local though indy metro is big of course, but I decided he was the one I would cheer for and he won, it was also the day of tony stewards 50th birthday and it was the allstar sprints and 3/4 midgets that raced that night, with the sprints having the first a main, it was on the thursday though so crowd prob wasn't as big as could have been but it was decent, kind of dusty though still is thats how it seems the dirt tracks are in the midwest, I would say kokomo is even worse but has that wider first turn so they can really wind it up but you just get sandblasted sitting in the front row no matter where you sit there the racing is furious though especially with sprint cars though saddly its really series and specials only anymore, but till a few years back had weeklies, understand though about the races they take time and money and nothing cheap anymore, but racing even high level is cheaper then any concert or other pro sports event really unless its really niche, though you do get a little dirty at a dirt track. we are pretty much done in indiana though I think the halloween show at montpiler might be it as far as this region save for drag racing for a few more weeks it just has to be above 45 for the tires and surface prep to work, so it can go a bit longer. well chao
@@manga12 Thank you for the info on the racing scene. I love dirt track racing and this race is one of the last in my area for the year. It is costly at times but I will gladly pay to enjoy it.
Racing was great. Crowd count was OK. Thursday was a tough night to get a great crowd. I saw some pictures from tonight and it looks like they will have a decent fan count tonight.
Looks very cool! 🏎💨
It was great to see cars on that track again.
Cool 😎
Looks like a good time. Where you related to Monk Underwood, from doddridge county?
It was a great evening. As far as I know I am not related to him.
Oh, happy day! 🙂
It sure was.

Any crowd at Pennsboro? Racing looked good last night

Friday night was a pretty packed house
