Late nights and too many classes seems to be par for the course for the weekly Bloomington and Lincoln Park shows.

Bloomington is hot a good place to have races after midnight as most of the people who live within hearing distance of the track are a--holes and they would love to close the racetrack. I live in Owen County next to Bloomington and our biggest problem is those who move from Bloomington to Owen County and want to make Owen County like Bloomington. I think we will hear more from these a--holes about racing after midnight,.

Wonder how many people called into complain about the noise? Possible curfew in the future?

Last night was certainly a bad look, but hopefully folks are tolerant that it’s the first time, maybe ever, that I remember them running that late/early. They are normally finished 11-11:30. So it’s not like it’s a weekly occurrence. We are trying to keep that in mind too…..😴🥱

Maybe, but without him you may not be watching races at Bloomington. And no I wasn't happy getting home at 3:45, but sometimes things don't go as planned.

Well I know 2 that live very very close to the track. They are the complete opposite of a—holes. Nicest people you’d ever meet, so don’t pre judge everyone.
I know last night was frustrating for everyone involved. Just hope they learn from their mistakes and wait till after racing to shoot off the fireworks if they gotta have them.

Lets just say Without Spiker at bloomington, Boos at GC and Rudisell at Burg, There may be only three tracks on good footing and two of them don't have weekly racing.

I totally missed this post! But spot on!

I can remember a few years back spending a week there one night.

You know, it could have been worse. They could have had all of the drivers come out for introductions with music pre-feature.


Oh wait.... forget I said that. I am in the minority there.
