Re: Usac: Kokomo grand prix shifts to saturday-sunday, april
A lot of people always say tracks should reschedule rain outs. This will show other tracks if the crowd is worth the investment.

Or they could wait until they know for sure what is going on. Something may be in the works that none of us know about. Would save from making contradicting announcements.

With the crowd I saw on YouTube that they had the first night, that was probably a blessing that they had to cancel. Someone had to lose a bunch of money.

Re: High Limit Sprints Car Series - 2024 Schedule
I went to the Ditch many years ago. It was unbelievably tacky. I have seen it a few times the last 3 or 4 years. It seems to be packed a lot harder than it used to be. I would still go back.
