Hey guys
As an addendum to Saturdays Cars “N” Coffee email I want to add that the speedway is hosting and event called Laps for Charity. If you’re interested the details are below.
Also, for those of you attending Cars “N” Coffee Jim Stahl has graciously invited us to come over and use his pool and backyard for those of you that want to take advantage of that invitation. He has also offered some Hot Dogs and Hamburgers as an added incentive if you’d like to have lunch. This will take place right after Cars “N“ Coffee.
As always I hope to see you!!
