I live in blue springs just north of plesant hill. I don't know about any pulls but I'm part of a local dirt latemodel race team and our season should be in full swing by then.

We have 2 points championships at valley speedway in grain valley and 2 championships at central missouri speedway in warnsburg. We are apart of a new racing organization we started last year http://www.ulmaracing.com/ . Valley didn't sanction our rules for 08 so we probaly will not run a full season there. LA speedway in lamont picked up the our sanctioning for 08 so we will be raceing there some as well. I think we are going to try and make a few down at lucas oil speedway down in weatland this spring. If anyone wants to tagalong to any of the races this season just geve me a shout.

Sorry I can't be of any use with knowing what's happening up north .... but I would like to thank you for your service to the country. Hope to meet up with you someday.

Are you in NC or CA right now ??

Cheers,

Hey thanks bud. I am stationed in NC but I'm temporarily in Cali. I'm out here for 3 months going to an andvanced maintenance course. I grew up in Mo till I left for boot camp but I dont make it home alot. Where exactly is Mtn Grove? is it far south? It sounds familiar. We used to have a little bit of land in cassville but I dont know if that's too close.

I used to come to springfield a little for wrestling. And I had a few friends that went to college down that way.
