Thumbs up Gateway International Speedway racing

Has anyone been to the Tuesday night open racing at Gateway International Speedway in Illinois? It's just off of I-70 outside of St Louis.

I heard every Tuesday from 6-10 they have track time available. A friend of mine went last week and said they're were about 90-100 cars there. He raced his mustang 4 times, but said he could have gotten in over 15 runs if he'd wanted to. Cost was only $15, and it's a professional setup with the 2 lanes, trees, timeslips and all.

Anyone been or interested?

I have not been out there on Tuesday nights only because I heard it was difficult to get more than one run in because of the number of cars. I have never taken any of my cars to the track but I have always wanted to. I would be interested in going out there some time if we can get a group together and pick a date.

I'm scheduled to get the group relash on Nov 1st. After I get that, and also thinking about the stainless steel clutch line, I'll go!

My clutch line is sitting in the living room right now. How late in the year does Gateway stay open?

Let me know what you think of the clutch line, and about the difficulty of installation.

Not sure about the times of Gateway. Our turbos should run a little better when it's cool though, right?
