It’s been a very slow process but hopefully we can get a groundbreaking this summer. Very slim chance for a 2027 national event but I think 2028 is reasonable.
I went to Bandimere with Dennis Taylor and the Evil wicked Mean and Nasty funny car. It was raining heavy and they announced that the rain should stop by 3 PM. 2:45 it stopped at 2:45 there were zero spectators in the stands, at 3:30 the stands were packed. they all must have been settling in their cars. LOL John Bandimere told me look a how close the housing is coming too the track it won't be long for the track, and it wasn't. I loved the place and the fantastic spectators.

Yeah, those mini-showers are constant summertime interruptions in that part of the world but as you saw, they're one-and-done and then it's back to racing. Things I remember about Bandimere was the first time I watched Buddy Ingersoll race his Pro Stock V6 Buick ( I was completely blown away by a full size doorslammer that ran high 7s at 5800 feet), the disappointment when my hometown hero Eddie Hill lost in the final to Gary Beck due to a faulty reverser and the time my wife and I went to see a big Fuel Altered meet and I was instantly hit with what turned out to be a week-long battle with the flu 10 minutes before we arrived at the track. I hated the flu but I hated missing the Altereds more.I went to Bandimere with Dennis Taylor and the Evil wicked Mean and Nasty funny car.
