Amazing! The Sprint Car Hall of Fame (HOF) & Museum were very kind to the "One Dream: Dirt Track Racing" crew present at Knoxville Nationals in Knoxville, Iowa (Dr. Jenkins, Kyle Luetters, Jenyann Roig, and myself [Alexis N. Del Ciello]). In addition to complimentary club level passes for viewing Nationals (given by the Sprint Car National Hall of Fame and Museum), complimentary pit passes by Bill Klingbeil (Donny Schatz's Public Relations Director from True Speed Communications & Tony Stewart Racing), and the well received showing of the documentary at the Sprint Car HOF and Museum, the weekend began on an unexpected foot. Dr. Jenkins and the "One Dream: Dirt Track Racing" crew were given a trophy in recognition of shining light on the world of dirt track racing by the Sprint Car HOF and Museum...check out the photos at http://onedreamracing.com/photos/. A trophy was given on behalf of the Sprint Car HOF and Museum to Kyle Luetters to honor him in undertaking and contributing to the much deserved sport of dirt track racing.
This has been an amazing trip to Knoxville Nationals. The crew and myself are greatly appreciative of the hospitality and are humbled by the response of fans and drivers alike to "One Dream." (Even though Nationals rained out and the B and A main are to run Sunday, August 16, 2009 at 7 p.m. at Knoxville Raceway. :( We will miss the ending; we are due back in Lawton, Oklahoma Sunday evening.) The drivers and crews will be greatly missed, but always in our hearts and a television remote button away from Speed Channel reruns.
Signing off because my adrenaline has finally died down enough to get some rest before hitting the road again in a few hours,
Alexis
