It's a kind of built-in sixth sense for these high plains drifters of the late model touring world. When the Deery Brothers Summer Series tour hit town last Wednesday, I thought it might be interesting to head out to Quincy Raceways well ahead of the scheduled 7 p.m. starting time and sit down and talk with some of these heroes of the high banks. I wondered what they thought of Quincy, and why come to this far south? Most are from southeastern, central and northeastern Iowa. I wanted to hear from a mixture of the drivers who travel with this series, which is made up of the sport's "semi-pro" types. They don't drive those ground-pounding, sheet-metal behemoths for a living, but they might as well. Many own their own businesses and can set their own schedules. Others use vacation days or simply miss work to chase that checkered flag at the end of the dirt-track rainbow. http://qui.live.mediaspanonline.com/new_story/SE-Scoop-column--SUN-5-4
