Swap torsion bars, tighten the valve lash up and bump the timing up a couple of degrees. Wrap some rags around the wing slider Scotty gave you because a rock had knocked off the hose fitting. Put some O-rings in the slider valve that you still have borrowed from Bush the monument man a couple of years ago at Lawrenceburg. After all that you still realize you`re gonna take a mule to the Kentucky derby. A man can only take so many blows to the ego in a years time...
dan, you sound like you've done that once or twice. lol

The most boring night I have ever spent at Bloomington Speedway. I will not go to another WOO race ever.

The heats were lackluster, but the feature provided for some drama. With Kinser flipping on the first lap, and then coming back to finish in the top ten, to Lucas Wolfe coming from nowhere to win it. I was pleasantly surprised tonight.

Nunn I would sure like some clarification on your post... Are you upset that a track it is actually trying to better the racing surface or what?? It seems to me that persons like yourself that gets paid by racetracks yet have never taken the risk on the promotion side of things would applaud track owners trying to better the racing surface not dig on them. But maybe I misunderstood you post.

I'm with you, Big Willy. Bloomington has been desperate for years to get the track re-worked during the program. It always looks like Salem after a heat or two.

Tonight was $650 to start for non regulars. That's what Billy Rose told me, anyway.

I was happy as all get out to see the track being reworked. Sorry for the confusion.

Well, that could be, but they listed the payout for all 22 cars tonight, and last was listed as 800, so who knows. It's like why didn't Kraig take a provisional at Lernerville when he was right in the middle of a points battle. Things don't make sense sometimes.
