The last time you guys had fan appreciation night (2005 I think) you guys opened the front gates up early to let people put there seats down (it might have been the Racin with D.O. race that year I can't remember at all), will the fans be allowed to do that again?

Thanks.

Why is this race on a Saturday?

Probably because school is starting and the crowd and car count dwindles when that happens. It was discussed on another thread and that seemed to be the logic behind the move to Saturday night.

I bet they don't get any cars.

Danville & Putnamville will be the place to be this weekend.

Paragon will do alright to with its open tire rule.

Pay your pit pass and RUN WHAT CHA BRUNG!!!

I'd bet 22 at Kokomo Saturday about the same as everybody else.

Thought Paragon was off this Saturday. What would make Dan and Put the "places to be"? Aren't they both just running regular shows?

Motormasher · 8/6/09, 10:07 AM

Your right Paragon is off, but Putnamville IS BACK and has always been a great track that drivers really like and Danville has stepped up to the plate this year and given the racers an awesome track every week. They are regular Sat night tracks and Racers don't have to "buy" or rent $40 for transponders to run there.

Your regular Saturday night Joe's are gonna go to the regular ole race tracks. Kokomo seems to atract the higher dollar teams every week.

1 Question is the MMSA mini sprints are thoes 1200cc

Kokomo schools don't start until Wednesday, so that excuse has no merit. Car count may not be down much from what it has been recently, but it may have an effect on the fan attendance. And I don't just mean at Kokomo. It seems to me that racing on Saturday night, the regular night of both Kamp and Montpelier, and offering half price is basically just taking fans from those tracks and possibly others such as Danville and Putnamville. Neither Kamp or Montpelier can afford to have that happen right now. I'm sure a few guys racing for points at Kokomo and one of those other tracks don't appreciate it.
