After months of back and forth, on and off again frustration the USAC/CRA "LOUIE VERMEIL CLASSIC" is posted back on the Calistoga Speedway Schedule at http://www.napacountyfairgrounds.com/speedway.htm . Please do NOT call the fairgrounds for ticket info as that is being decided and handled by USAC and I will post the ticket info when it becomes available. You can call the fairgrounds for RV reservations at 707-942-5221. Louie's sons Stan, Al and Dick Vermeil are all planning an autograph session and wine tasting before the gates open for the first night of racing. Calistoga legends like Leroy Van Connett, Jimmy Boyd, and The Andersons are expected to attend. Plus the USAC stars of today like Kruseman, Jones, Spencer, Keading and Gardner. This is going to be the biggest event of the season, so don't miss it.

Great news and thank you for all of your updates. Wouldn't it be great if some of the old race cars could be on display at the fairgrounds. Maybe have some of the great drivers from the past take a few laps around the track, similar to the Legends of Ascot that is an annual event at the PAS. Drivers like Leroy Van Connett, Jimmy Boyd, the "Midnight Cowboy" Johnny Anderson, Jimmy Sills and some of the other greats take a few laps for the fans. Another thought would be to have Gary Gerould be a guest announcer that weekend. Anyway thanks for all of your info and thanks to Steve Howard and Kevin Miller at USAC. Can't wait for Calistoga.
