We will be in good shape, Steve. Several Paragon regulars and some Burg competitors look to be in the house. Solid payback throughout the Top 10 and Open Tire Rule too!

Guess what day it is!!! It's Hump Day and only 3 days till the thunder of some 410 Non-Wing Sprint Cars invade Twin Cities Raceway Park for the first time in over 3 years! Open Practice tonight from 5-8 pm; for anyone wanting to break in a new car or try some set-ups. Pits Open at 330 and only $15 to get in!

I'll see everyone this Saturday night!

Thanks!

I worked to get the 9 Sprint shows on the schedule, the purse breakdown for the money I was given to work with, lined up Bloomington push trucks when Bob Gompf's crew is at Lawrenceburg; otherwise they have commited to be at Twin Cities Raceway Park for the other shows we have. I lined up and called many owners and drivers who plan to support our deal and worked to keep it Open Tire; which it is. I also made sure we have a good race track, by getting someone who knows how to prep a track; Pete Abel. Pete worked the track in 2001 and always had a great track for us to race on! Rick Robinson and his crew will run a professional show and make it enjoyable for everyone!
Looking forward to Saturday Night!
Thanks and I'll see everyone there!

Its your deal I have no horse in the game but I wondered why you didn't run the 5 Fridays that neither Bloomington or Gas City are running. 5-1, 6-5, 7-24, 8-7 and 9-11 have no sprint cars running ANYWHERE in Indiana. Just thought it would make sense to take these dates. You wouldn't have to recruit drivers from other tracks and would at least get most of the Bloomington regulars I would guess. I havent been there since the last time they had the NO Way Out there have the fences been replaced?

Some times I have a hard time understanding people. It's another track that's trying to run sprint cars. It's a track people can choose to go enjoy a evening of racing.
Instead there is people already complaining.
I have a idea. Let's be glad it's another choice. Go out and support a track any track.
They Close faster than they open.
