I would like to see a sat. nite track come into play with this class, would help with the development & growth, I have owned several 305's and had FUN racing them, I just might build another one, I had $6,500 in the first one, $8k in the second, bought & sold several in the $5,500 to $6,500 range, You don't have to spend a fortune to have fun in these sprints, with over 1,000 of them around the country, there is a market.

i dont think its about making this class any more of a success than any other class.. if they do anything its about making bloomington speedway more profitable , and understandable, as it is a business. however i believe they are barking at the wrong gate.. need to start more fan appreciation and attendance to hit the home run as what few cars and fans another small class will bring in wont do the job.. just my opinion
