That is prime late model country.
They where lucky to have that race last year and it was a decent show.
It's hard to draw open wheel fans there.
I under stand why folks are mad as I was too; as they lied about why they cancelled.
When their schedule was released and then I saw the Kokomo schedule when it was released even before the season started I had reservations about that show at FALS after seeing the All Stars where at Kokomo along with the non-wing sprints that night less then 130 miles away.
It would have been hard to draw a full field and not a whole lot of fans in the stands.
The track is the best racing in Illinois when it's right.
They definitely need to work on their PR skills though so that b.s. doesn't happen again
They should thought about it first.
They made a mistake.
You telling me you haven't made a mistake in your life time.
At least they fessed up to it.
I rather have a track staff fess up to a mistake then ones that keep lying to you over and over again.

No I've never been to FALS, but it WAS on my bucket list. I am aware of their DLM connection, I am from a DLM background and area.
Have I ever made a mistake? YES.
Have I ever lied? YES.
Have I ever stolen anything? YES.
Worshiping other gods? NOPE.
Murder? NO.
Drugs? NO.
Adultery? YES, but only in my heart, not in the flesh(though Biblically they are equal) and I already confessed to that too. LOL.
Now that I've cleared my conscience I feel better. Thankyou. Now as to FALS attempt at deception, while its not the end of the world, what makes it bad was how lame and transparent it was. I am glad they at least gave Casey 2 weeks to regroup, but I am, like a lot of others, extremely disappointed. I want so much for non-wing sprints to grow and thrive, but I understand business too and you have to make money. I did not realize that Kokomo and FALS were only 130 miles apart, but even so WAR has a lot of dedicated teams on their tour, so I don't think the car count would've been a big issue.
Fans on the other hand may have been affected, but I'm not from that area so I don't know how that all shakes out up there. If I was overly harsh in my criticism I apologize. I haven't seen their FB page, I don't do FB anymore,
but over on
4M one of the
Ex-FALS employees is trying to convince everyone the reason they backed out is because WAR owed them(FALS) money, which
I DO NOT BELIEVE. So my harshness was as a result of that line of BS. Please take my jokes as they were intended, in fun, I mean you no disrespect.
