Kudos to POWRi for not running qualifiers after the heats. I feel that the Chilli Bowl format takes way to long, and needlessly confuses the vast majority of fans. A 9:08 checker flag for the A Main...

I had the pleasure and honor of meeting Paul last year at the Kokomo Grand Prix. Mr. Hazen is an under appreciated treasure.

MLRA Late Models at Tri City. Gates open at 4:30, so you would have to make haste getting out of Springfield, especially if there's a couple of yellows in the feature.

Watch the replay. Welpott DID move over.
And it's not like Travis was a moving chicane. Which is amazing, because he had worn his RR down almost to air.

As long as the slow cars hold a steady line, isn't it the responsibility of the leaders to find a way around them?

And yet they got nearly 50 entries for most of the Sprint Week races. Why would they pay more?

Go back to running non-qualifer races to eliminate the slowest qualifiers before the heats.

Yeah, again, having plenty of previous exposure to USAC, I personally get that. But how many local fans in the stands would have? Around here, when qualifying, heats are usually straight up, with a...

Explaining formats

First off, kudos to USAC for bringing the cars and stars of the Thunder and Lightning Division to the STL area last night. Great show last night in both classes.

That said, I feel a better job...

They are limiting seating. Which is interesting, as the stands were probably 85-90% filled for a regular Saturday night program this past weekend.

It's not too terribly cold, so the fumes in the air don't sink as far in the warmer, lighter air. I do usually take some nasal allergy spray (generic Flonase) with me to spritz before the feature.

I don't get why some have to be so damn passive aggressive. Why can't we just support racing, without taking shots at other sports?🙄
