They're SOL... They just tore down the "Crackhead Palace"
There are lots of deer blinds people can rent much nicer than any Hilton
If you are still playing Saturday I would hope you wouldn’t be bitching about the drive
St. Vincent, enjoy your drive Saturday to one of Southwest Missouri’s finest towns.
Go Blackhawks!

Did you ever make it down to 66 Speedway in Joplin ??? World of Outlaws opened their season there a couple of years before it was sold and closed
Ever make it out to the I-70 speedway? I went to the old one as a kid. Haven't made it to the new one yet
I practically lived there when Greg and Marilyn Weld (Weld wheels for non KC folks) owned it from 1981-87. That was actually where I was introduced to World of Outlaws sprint car racing.
The new track is a very nice facility with a huge flaw that could eventually close them again: the track. Why invest a zillion to rebuild everything (the pits are nice as it gets) but not rip out the pavement but simply put a few inches of dirt over it? Drivers absolutely hate the track (size is also hard on motors especially on those real hot summer evenings) because of that plus the exposed pavement causes the track to get excessively slick/dangerous (sprint car speeds on straights are about 135-140 MPH). I hope the best for it and, yes, have been there for all major sprint car spring and summer events but hope they fix the track issue.
