Such a shame. Hate to see something running against Indiana Sprint week, especially right next door. Thumps down from me on Paragon schedule,

Hope USAC uses the 4 heat format, it's hard enough to transfer from outside the second row..

31 at Bloomington has to be the lowest count for Indiana Sprint Week here since USAC took over the sanction in 1996. Will have to check the stats from Richie’s Sprint Week chronology to confirm.

So why is BOSS running at Paragon against Bloomington Sprint Week?… How did that happen?
There’s approximately 107 sprint cars within 30 miles of each other?
Plus another 21 Steel Blocks in Indy.

Paragon also ran sprints against the Gas City & Kokomo Sprint Week shows last weekend. I'm sure this is the first time an Indiana track ran sprints against four Sprint Week shows in one season.

There are no cars at Paragon tonight that Bton would benefit from. Quantity is not always better as shown at LPS last eve.

Dave Darland would have been a nice Bloomington addition in the twilight of his career.

31 quality cars is fine. 4 heats and a B. No need to throw rocks at Paragon after the money they have spent and I think the only track still with weekly racing. I am sure if USAC wanted to talk with them about a sprint week date they might change their approach.

Former Sheldon Kinser Memorial winner Nick Bilbee would have been a Bloomington bonus as well.

In the Dutcher ride no less.
Not having the best year, But I'd never count that car out if they get it right
