On October 7th and 8th the Whelan Tour will be at Waterford Speedbowl for 150 lab event. All the usual classes will also be running. $35 covers the weekend. Kids are much cheaper. www.speedbowl.com

On Friday, Saturday and Sunday (October 10-13) Thompson International Speedway will host the Whelen tour as well as the Supermodifieds and the NEMA midgets. $50 covers the weekend, $75 if you want to wonder around the pits. If the weather is dry this should be a terrific event. If you have never seen the NEMA cars or the Supermodifieds you will be amazed. Both classes are very fast. www.thompsonspeedway.com

So there you have it. If you have young kids this is a pretty inexpensive way to amuse them for the day. Take ear protection, especially for the kids.

Jay will you be at Thompson?
