Its about dam time. A place with nice equipment, and an airport that flies in poles is only 20 minutes from the track........not 2.5 hours!!!!! Obviously its hard to beat Fayettville's facility, but boise's equipment (track and runways) is identical, just don't have the same atmosphere. I'm sure they'll beef it up a bit for the meet though, and it will yield quality results.
