H6088,
My son is your near your old stomping grounds since he lives in LaVista and I am just North of Omaha in Blair. Sounds like you need to plan a trip home to see the family and then drive a bit further and go to Hastings, Ne. for the Mustang Roundup in September ( www.racemph.com ). This is a "Bucket List"event for Mustang Trackrats as we get 3-8 Ford Engineers/Executives who drive down from Dearborn to run their cars with us , and often bring fun machines with them - rumor is there will be a GT 500 there this year! Track Instruction, time trials, autocross, partying, and more, so a great excuse to drive home, ha?!
I normally run a track near Glenwood, Iowa ( RPM ), but it was under 14 foot of water from the Missouri/Platte River flooding, so not sure if it will even open this year? I often go to Hastings ( MPH) or wander down to Topeka to run at Heartland Motorsports Park.
Small World that you are from Ralston and please feel free to call a fellow Nebraskan for any advice you think I might be able to offer? There are alot very knowledgeable folks on this Forum ( way out of my league ) and unlike some Forums , the group here is very willing to help and encourage others!
Sincerely,
Bill Pemberton
