we are planning a party on lake monroe down south and i am trying to get some race/ high performance rigs here to help stir up interest in our sport.as for when probably in september early but not conflicting with any races. guys lets get some help here the more the better.possible speed run auction off rides for charity stuff like that. how about you chris riendel

Doug

wow That sounds pretty cool to me. I have been wanting to check that lake out the last few years but always wind up going somewhere else. Doesn't John Melincamp have a house on the lake ? If you are talking a charity event you might be able to get him involved. His wife is really big into that and she is also a spokes person for the IRL. I hope to see some more posts.

I have a slip on Monroe. There every weekend Fri -Sun.

Some weekends there is a pretty good showing of powerboats, otherwise its us Fountains, Formulas, Bajas and a 46' Black Thunder. Mellancamp does have a house there. But not something he advertises, if you get my drift.
You may try to call Marine Center in Indy and talk to owner Mike Hoffman. He sold a lot of boats on Monroe and is an ex racer, APBA I "think". He might have some ideas for you.
Good Luck

US1 it's good to hear from you. It was eather last year or the year before we were talking about meeting up down there. Still have to make that happen and you can show me around. Catch you later. Doug

Hey this is my lake and who are all you people?
I have been there almost every Sunday this year. I would love to see a get together on Monroe and a charity event would be even better. I live about 30 minutes from the lake and would be glad to help out any way I can. I will say though I will be on Cumberland from 8/29-9/8.

Where do you launch at down at Cumberland ? And... how far is Monroe Lake from Brookville?

its about 45min west of brookville.

and there's a big redone ramp at paynetown....i guess they got tired of not being able to use it in the spring because of high water!
