What's everyone's thoughts of it being moved from Haubstadt to Pontoon Beach?

Both are top notch facilities... There's no doubt that Kevin will make a great run at promoting and running this event well. Also, you have the Silver Crown cars at Gateway the following day.

I naturally would have loved to seen it close to home, but I'll support the race with my attendance, and will attend Gateway for the Silver Crown cars the next day, that is, if it is a night race.

Since you ask, quite frankly I think it sucks,the Hut Hundred should be at THAT or at least in Indiana,period.

When Haubstadt no longer wanted it, it had to go somewhere, or disappear. I thank the Gundakers for stepping up. I wish it was still at Terre Haute, but I don't see teams wanting that. From purely a selfish stand, it only takes me about 15 minutes longer to get to Granite City than it does Haubstadt. The silver crown cars were very good the last time I saw them at Gateway.

So what you are saying is the people at THAT didn't want it either?

I'm pretty happy about it being at Tri city. I did love it at THAT. Coupled with the SC show at Gateway, it looks like fun.

Hey Brent. Any idea why Tri State didn't want it anymore? I thought it was rather successful there and the owners, drivers and fans liked it. Also, were any other Indiana track considered before the decision to go Tri City? I like Tri City but would rather see the Hut 100 stay in Indiana. Pretty selfish on my part I guess.

Funkster , for you it's 15 minutes, not me. With 69 open it's a LOT longer to the Beach. No Hut Hundred, Granite City Hundred, or whatever you want to call it, for me.

Can someone on here explain to me why it's not run at Terre Haute anymore? I asked that very question the other day, with no replys........(59 cars at perris, go figure)

By the way, I'm good with Granite City
