Wouldn't miss it. Not the same as it was in the 60's and 70's, but still fun to watch. Hope they have a decent turn-out. I feel sorry for those who never got a chance to spectate or participate in the real Parker 9-Hour -- it was an incredible event. Glad to see that at least a part of it is still around.

We were thinking about coming up for the day maybe. How much does it cost to get in and what's the schedule?

Nice photo Denny -- That's Bob Nordskog in the foreground in #62 and just behind to the right looks like ski racer Dick Williams in his #47 "Pony Tail" Rayson Craft.
