If they packed this any harder it would be concrete. Not my kind of track. They're making it hard to come to besides sprint week when I'm here for the rest of the week anyway. Bring back O'Connor!!!!

I hope that your track prep critique got you so angry that you stormed off in disgust and didn't get to see what the rest of us were so lucky to get to witness, tonight.

Can anyone explain why Brady Short would pass up a better paying show less than an hour from home to run at another 1/2 mile track(Millstream) over 3 hrs away.

Could be many reasons, maybe they thought they weren't competitive closer to home ? Who knows but them.

Here's my take on the THAT last night.

Yes, the track was not as heavy as I would have liked, and yes it got somewhat dusty during the feature. With that said, the racing was good, the track had multiple FAST grooves, it didn't take rubber and the feature was one of the best of the year. 5 OFFICIAL lead changes and at least that many more that were not official. Great racing, we stayed for the interviews and on the road at 9:15 PM. A great way to wrap up the 2016 USAC Midwest Sprint season.
