[noser23x]

This should be a very fun hard hitting show, with the only downside being the cold. I personally cant wait!

[Krueggs81]

Its was cold last year and then the next day we were working on cars in just long sleeve shirts!!

[racer20m]

Just spend more time in the heated beer tent ;D wishfull thinking boys, itll be in the 30s with light flurries to complete the winter effect, lol.

[Krueggs81]

6 inches of snow on the track would make it interesting!

[noser23x]

I actually think that would be pretty sweet. Just letting the first timers know, if you think your wearing enough your probably wrong ;D. I think the flurries would be pretty sweet and 30s would be cool

[racer20m]

LOOKING FOR VENDORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will be having the swap meet/ vendor booth sales again this year starting at 10 am, as many people enjoyed the extra aspect of the show, a place to keep warm throughout the day, or simply socialize while others made a little $$$$$.

If any one is interested in bringing some stuff, or wants to set up a booth to sell your products/ merchandise inside the heated building or outside there will be a small fee of $50 for a heated indoor spot or $25 for outside truck and trailor spot to help cover our heat and snow removal expenses to provide this area for everyone to enjoy.
please let us know asap your interested so we can cordinate and make sure we reserve enough room to fit your needs.

Please contact Jeremy Ertman 507-525-4290 as he is cordinating or myself (Randy) at 507-327-1944 to reserve a spot, thanks!

ONLY MONTH AWAY ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
