To be clear, I would have no problem with them running regular shows because a lot of locals most likely wouldn’t make the trip anyway, but to run specials is blatant disrespect to the sanction that probably provides these tracks with their biggest races of the year
Meanwhile; back in the pits, 36 drivers go home with $100 each night while spending $1100 each night.

Spanky I suppose that’s a small price to pay for doing what you love!

MSCS lists 98 cars have points accumulated in their series. How many of these guys do you really think would travel to USAC Nationals at Husets? Gives some locals a chance to make a few dollars in Indiana this weekend.

You have 2 big days of MSCS and then you have Bloomington and LPS schedule local shows against them, and you complain about scheduling against USAC at Husets.
