Thinking fan base plays a part. I'd give my customers what they want too.

$3,000 in PA vs $1,400 in IN. Seems to me they're getting away with it

Anyone going to the National Open? I am going SAturday and am looking forward to it. I have always wanted to go Williams Grove and this opportunity came up. WIlliams Grove is one of those places on my racing bucket list. I think it should be a great experience.

David,

Enjoy the show. I am envious and wish I could tag along. It is on my wish list for down the road. Be safe and let us know about your trip.

I will be headed down from Oswego. I went for the first time to last year. My now son inlaw's father invited me down. He used race sprint cars there back in the 70's, or as he puts it "25% slower ago"

Last year was agood show, as they also ran the rained out summer nationals show the same night. Looking forward to it!

You gotta love simplistic answers to complex issues.
