I used to like reading the old paper from several years ago. There was an article (by DC I think) that was written in Old English about a lady who removed her petticoat. I think this was in reference to something that happened at the old Bucksnort Tavern one night during Loretta's week. If anyone has that, I would love to read it again!

I have a bunch of them buried in storage, but I don't remember that story. There was some really good stuff in those old newspapers.

It was a neat article and based on a true story.

I drove by where it used to be Saturday on my way to a local track fro practice. The funny thing is none of us "locals" would ever go there until Loretta's week.

I believe it started as the old D-5 newsletter, and it was a lovely slice of underground moto goo.

Think I've got a whole bunch of 'em somewhere....

The Bucksnort Tavern was a happening place until it burned to the ground under somewhat suspicious circumstances. Then we moved on to the Stewart Branch Saloon, which had it all going on until a knife fight broke out amongst some locals and Mike Raring (old CTi guy) literally saved the man's life. Then we decided to start a beer tent on the premises (it was called the AXO Cafe at first, and then the Racer X House, ala Waffle House, and now it's just the beer tent).

But it all really started with Proud Mary's, which alas, like boot gatorz, day-glo and De-Handlers, lived too short a life.

How could any place with the name "Bucksnort Tavern" burn under anything BUT suspicous circumstances?

They used to hand these Papers out at the Steel City Natonals, great piece to read which ultimately turned into RacerX Magazine.
