And the article says the event will not be rescheduled...never understand why they never reschedule.

Tim, between the Usac and the track there aren't many openings.

I always wished USAC could have a date in mid summer at Eldora cause March or April isn't a for sure thing.

Actually, during the Earl Baltes era, there were no less than 4 USAC shows a year at Eldora. Johnny Appleseed race with Late Models took place every Memorial Day's eve; and then, in the summer, you had an event also- either the Buckeye Nationals, or the Mopar Thunder.

Just isn't the same place anymore; used to feel like home. It still sucks that I'll have no reason to head to Rossburg until late September (shame on all organizing parties).:10::11;

Ever since Stewart got it there have been less and less USAC races there. Of course he's a real Outlaw now right. It's disgusting there will only be one USAC sprint car race there this year and it's a shared event. I went to them all last year, 7hrs. each way from Iowa and could'nt wait for more this year. They finally got a good track prep guy and now we don't get to race there. Booooo!

The new owner/administration has obviously put USAC on the back burner and now emphasizes late models, WoO and advancing the NASCRAP label. I'm just glad I was able to see so much great racing during the Baltes era.
