    Not sure if they have the stands up yet or not. Admission is $10 for the weekend. On Saturday, High Precision Racing will be there with yummy (and free!) Eldorado Organic Vitamin water:

    "A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

    I'll see ya'll out there, if not both days at least for Sundays races.
    Hopefully the weather will be a little better on Saturday than they're saying right now.
    Sunday should be about perfect if the rain holds off with temps in the 60's.

    And from what I've heard they don't have seating yet so bring a lawn chair.
    Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.

    Yeah? Even better going down the straight and noticing that you have no brakes like you did before you left paddock that'll make you pee a little

    There are some stands at the exit of turn one and there are stands at the pit entrance/exit that gives you a decent view leading up to the front straight.

    $10 admission to come and watch the first ever motorcycle race at Highplains.

    Added bonus is Jason Disalvo and Matt Lynn are out the scootin around pretty quickly.

    The only thing that would have made it better -------- no wet weather (read mud) ------- and access to the infield and the elevated areas. Except for the area around the pits, a 2.55 mile track has yet to be explored basically. I shall return.
