I did not realize that there were so many people in this state with NO LIFE.

IMO... No, the risk seems worth the reward. They know the best sprint car drivers will be at their track and with that fans will follow.

This week is a regular show... fans won't have the same desire to be in attendance.

And before you go flaming, which most of you will, I'm racing this weekend in this hot, soupy stuff. I might wear the two-layer suit instead of the four, and I will no doubt ingest and excrete more fluids, but I'll be there.

Gas City and Bloomington are both well-run places and have good people at the helm, it's just disappointing and not a decision I agree with or support. Sign of the times, I guess.

I work outside in the heat, and I'm sure a lot of folks on here do too. So forgive me for taking umbrage at the notion that we're "coddled" for not wanting to sit in 100 degree heat to see a regular race.

:8::5: Now thats funny and sadly true. I'd love to go to the races tomorrow and am probably fool enough to go if they were running but I am sure they made the correct decision. Now we will see what the Saturday promoters will do. We are probably good for sunday since the high will ONLY be 90. :2:
