Lots of great events are slated for September and October , with the three-day season finale 22nd annual Ghosts , Goblins , and Gearheads scheduled for October 25-27 . “ That ’ s a great family-oriented event and every year we decorate the track with handmade decorations ... it takes a whole week just to set everything up and decorate the track !” says Miller . “ On Saturday night , we shut down racing and lock the gate . No motorized vehicles are in operation , and the kids will literally collect pillowcases full of candy !”
While this much-anticipated Halloweenthemed race typically closes out the season , Miller has been tempted to race a little longer in recent years . “ We hardly get snow here anymore , and if I had a 70-degree weekend , I ’ d be real tempted
to put together something like the Christmas Nationals !” he laughs .
“ More than anything , I just want to keep trying to improve the place , make things nicer , and hopefully people will want to be here . I ’ m very thankful for my team and full-time employees ; they ’ re a multi-talented group of people who make this track operate smoothly ,” he concludes . DI
