With their schedule full of good stuff, it looks like I'll be out in Indiana twice.
-- April 16/17/18 for the 3 race weekend (I already got my flight and I'm staying @ 4 pts by Sheraton in Carmel for $43. bucks a night) There will be no need to visit any new racetracks with 3 nights of great tracks and racing.

And I may return in July for the 2nd half of Sprint week. There are a couple of tracks I haven't been to in that half. (Brownstown/Tri-State) plus you can't lose when you end the week @ Kokomo for a reg. show.:8:

Later, JERSEY

In talking with the O'Connors they were thinking about not running that date because they had no crowd that night. In fact there werent a whole lot of cars that night either. I think that might have been the night I was halfway back to Indy before it got dark. So watch the schedule when it comes out to make sure.

John,

You are correct. We were home before 9:30 PM that night and the car count was less than normal. I also heard that they might not race that Sunday this year. Time will tell.

A slightly beefed up purse for that night would do the trick. Remember the first year after the remodeling, they hosted a $5,000 to win race? That was well attended and had a big car count. Just sayin'...

Hey thanks everyone on the heads up about Kokomo. I was at that $5000 to win show that I beleive was about 102 degrees out. I hope they do that show again or some form of it. Kokomo is a great track to see non-wingers. I guess I will have to look up a Sunday track somewhere for that night or just fly home and work on Monday(YUCK!!!)
