Dang! I don't have any work in Pioche coming up like I did for the Pot-O-Gold race. Maybe I can come up with something though. Last year I charged the client mileage to Pioche and back. That paid for the gas for most of my trip to Ely, and I was already almost half way there. It was some good dirt track racing. It was not like Duel In The Desert, but about 30 modifieds showed up. The track was in great shape, and the people were friendly.

Duh, guess I confused those two little Nevada towns with short names starting with E - Ely and Elko. Must be getting senile. At least I was able to figure out that I messed up. I was thinking of the great racing I saw in Elko. I expect it will be some good racing in Ely too, and Ely's a lot closer than Elko. Think I need a nap after I drink my Ensure.

Hey Goat Roper, Elko is 180 miles North of Ely. 1st time Modifieds have raced @ Great Basin Raceway. They are expecting 40 - 50 Modifieds. The local classes are running as well. We are bringing the #83 Dodge Charger to race with their purestock/bomber cars. Maybe a few of the bombers down South would make the trip.
Take care,
Jody

Yeah, Jody, I am expected to appear at the ropin' convention in Blackfoot, Idaho again this year. It will be the first weekend in September. I probably could swing by Ely on my way back the next weekend. I can take my GPS, so I don't get lost. It would work if I remember to punch in Ely, instead of Elko. One time I put in Elko, and wound up in Minnesota. That dang thing is really helpful, but you got to know what you're doin'. If I make it to the race I will try to look you up.
Hey Bombers! Ely is only twice as far as DVR.
