Doug Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Latest we heard on Chicago is we're supposed to meet at Chicagoland speedway. They will be staging us with the Nascar haulers for a escorted caravan to the street course area downtown. We will have a "limited" time to setup what ever that means. The Xfinity teams will be staged later in a 2nd caravan. No word on how the Xfinity haulers will be leaving or when the Cup teams are coming in. No word on how we leave after the race. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) We have a local Facebook page of local tracks past and present that's in our area. The #20 was a car my dad use to crew for in the early 60's. Edited June 17, 2023 by Doug 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puts it all into perspective I thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) Now us and Goodyear lost all power. Keep tripping the breakers on the generator. One guy on our team is a master electrician and between him and a guy from the city think the generator is overloaded and we may need to bring an additional generator in. Casualty of the power issue.
