This is a good weekend, great track, and the best of people.
Blackhawks Farms is a privately owned track with great infrastructure. It's
very green with grass and trees, and plenty of paddock space and choices.
Entries are not usually expensive, the camping is free with a nominal charge
for electricity. New facilities with showers and a second story covered deck
that affords a view of much of the track.
Hold that thought. You will be hearing more about Blackhawks Farms in the
future.
