June 3rd, Smoke and the boyz meet up at Eldora for charity

Prelude focus has changed but racing is still the same
Event to benefit entities that cater to military personnel
By NASCAR.COM
June 2, 2009

ROSSBURG, Ohio — As the sun sets over the cornfields of central Ohio on Wednesday, 26 of the best drivers in the country will meet at Eldora Speedway for the fifth annual Prelude to the Dream.

There is no prize money, no points, no sponsor obligations — just 26 drivers in dirt late model stock cars going for a trophy and bragging rights among their peers. All drivers want the trophy, but for 25 of them, if they can’t win, they want to beat Eldora’s owner, Tony Stewart — a two time Prelude to the Dream winner.

1st?

By a country mile, to boot..

[umgud]

Will this be on Speed?

[umgud]

OOPS.........HBO pay per view. Hope it reruns later.

[eyedigress]

I might get in on this one. My driver Hambone is taking a beating so maybe some fan interaction on FR can help him out. :^)

Thanks for the thread, NormsRevenge.

[Canes101]

Now that’s entertainment.

[afnamvet]

I should be home for this one.

[Libloather]

The points leader, Tony Stewart, is the favorite - no?

[cleveland gop]

Some okra for you?

Time for Flipper to drive into victory lane, no?

Or maybe JJ, Flash, fast Kasay or Shrub has their own ideas?

[tubebender]

Time flies when you're having fun. Must remember to change my picks. We had 2 hours of lightening and thunder just east of Eureka and a flash flood warming was posted for Redwood National park and north into Ore and east to I-5. Southern Ore is getting hammered!

[NYTexan]

Thanks Norm...enjoy yer vacation!
Back online in my new digs. Got yer pings covered.

[NEPA]

I'll be working the race again this year. We usher on Sunday until the race starts and then we can find a seat in the stands and watch the race.

For doing that we get a free pass for the entire weekend: qualifying, practice, the Saturday ARCA race - all free. The only thing we can't do is go into the pits.

For doing this the Mattioli family (track owners) give $50 per volunteer to charity.

I'm not sure what events I'm going to. Friday I'm off work early but Saturday (ARCA race) I'm supposed to work until about 2 or 3.

[Roccus]

Thanks for the thread, Norm.

BON VOYAGE!!

[McGruff]

I'll be working the race again this year...

Talk about the lucky dog winner. ;^) Enjoy.

[SouthTexas]

We have clouds.
