JDF: going to be a long week at work for many of us with little time to do anything the week of the derby, so question to help drivers prepare--Will these be one and done features only for stock & Pro-mod classes? If not and your thinking heats, what is the minimum car count you need to turn the event into running heats...if you run heats, Will you be having a consi for each class?
Thanks John as we all prepare what to have to pack up >>> My vote is one and done!

Thanks John as we all prepare what to have to pack up >>> My vote is one and done! I have received several messages like this one. We will be running one shot deals in all classes. Make sure you still bring torches in case something needs cut. Read the rules to make sure you are in compliance. I know everyone likes to have the advantage so make sure you bring a spare or back plan in case you get caught trying to get by with something! All cars are to be entered and inspected by 5pm. Drivers meeting is at 530pm and we will start at 6pm. LINE UP: Power Wheels Mini Cars Pro-Mods Stock Class My cell is 317-506-9114 if you need to contact me... John Faucett

Thank you & good to hear. Need a dose of the bash weather for Saturday UP! A little thunder shower passing though will just cool it down a little. We will scrape the track like in the fall show if it is too sloppy jdf

Still a go with the forecast? Looking forward to it, but it looks ugly around 7pm. Is it covered grandstands?

Weather for today is 82 degrees hot and humid! We have sunshine with no rain expected until around 8pm. They say the showers are moving north so we not get any or just a brief shower.
Grandstands are not covered but you will be parked close enough that if we have a brief shower you can take cover under the stands or in your car.....
Gates open at noon derby starts at 6pm sharp..

Had a good couple hrs where there wasn't going to be rain. Show started an hour late, they should have ran the power wheels before the hour late start time since they spent time trying to find a spot for them to derby at 7. It's pouring rain now, and the derby could be over if they had started it on time. Hoping there's a chance to get the stocks in, was really looking forward to watching that.

Any chances on heats for fair show if you get 25-30 stock or still one and done? Wondering so we can buy some extra parts if need to

It was nice to see 3 cars that knew where the skinny was for the first 20 minutes, but that's how it is aways. Good job to the Black and Purple car and 2 black and green cars, you were the show!

Congrats to my cousin Jason on the victory!!! Chris good job on second! Larry and Jerome drove hard like always. John Deree got one better position than he thought. Good job! Young smack talkers didn't kill any IMPERIALS??? I know I had problems getting around... Maybe because my car weighs probably 1000#s more than a Ford. Funny I couldn't hear black and purple cars engines over my own. Just saying.
Thanks to Fair board for letting us run. Thanks again John. Hopefully better weather will bring many more fans next time!

We did not get to run the stock class due to rain but had 17 entered to run and 3 loaded because of some minor infractions!
I want to thank the Clinton County 4H Fairboard for letting me put these derbies on and all the support they give to me. I also want to thank everyone who helped me put on the derby. I want to thank the many sponsors for this derby.
Most of all I want to thank all the drivers for coming out and supporting my events and the fans who showed up to Saturday nights rain fest!
If we would have cancelled the derby there would have been people mad but we tried to have it so it is what it is!
Thank you again and we will see you Saturday July 11th at 7pm ... Clinton County 4H Fairgrounds for the first fair derby of the year...
