I think you guys know that as a rule, when we have a big open wheel race we try not to pack it full of classes. But we do have a lot of classes scheduled for next Friday. Our track has been closed for 3 weeks due to our County fair and now we just canceled this Friday (the 21st) due to heat. We owe it to our local racers that call this their home track a chance to justify the money they have tied up in a race car instead of a boat by getting to race the darn thing now and then.
Usually for a special we will have a local show a week before and week after which makes us feel better about leaving them home on a special night. This time it's been so long that we really need to let them race and enjoy their home track.
As we always do in this situation, we will race our premier classes early in the program to allow those of you who have no interest in our local classes a chance to head home early. We will probably have to stick a class or two between the MOWA feature and WAR feature to allow guys a chance to switch cars if they are pulling double duty. But I think by now those of you who come here for a big event realize that we do everything we can to make our traveling fans and teams barely notice the great local racing that takes place - usually after you have already left after our headline features.
