On their Facebook page they keep posting that they're racing tonight and are still doing the fireworks despite the burn ban. The most recent post by the track was 15 hours ago, so...
Maybe they should get the track prep right first and then worry about making the track bigger and putting up a scoreboard. Or maybe they should concentrate on the beer booth first...get 'em loopy so...
I guess I've been blind all these years or something because it appears there were so many things "wrong"/lacking with the track that I just didn't see.
I saw all the back and forth in the other thread and went looking for this article that was published a few weeks ago in the IU campus newspaper. Seems they bury something on the track in this paper...
Is there a water shortage in Bloomington? Rhetorical question. I know there's not since I live here. Which makes the layers of dirt I'm wearing all the more puzzling. Bloomington is never like this...
Just an FYI, but Florence has 3 entire sections of the frontstretch grandstands that are non-smoking and non-alcoholic drinks. It's where we sit each time we're down there and, just my personal...
To say they didn't approve the request is a bit misleading, because they also didn't DISAPPROVE the request. What they did was ignore the request. From what's been presented above, Jason did what the...
They almost came back and won Saturday's game, scored 28 unanswered points, only to see it slip away in the final minutes. If anything, fans in these parts are cautiously optimistic, bordering on...
I did...shame on me! :11; I think the suites are fine for some people, and I guess if it gets them to the track and turns them into fans, then all the better. But if I'm going to watch a race from...
Maybe I'm in the minority, but a big part of the enjoyment I get from being at the track is the atmosphere. No, not the occasional drunk who sloshes his/her beer on me, although that goes with the...
"In degrading this once-hallowed place down to dirt-track level" WTH? Felt like not only a potshot at dirt tracks, but also the dirt track drivers who work so hard to make it to Indy.
Seem to be a lot of people thinking they're entitled to see a race every weekend, which just further illustrates that promoters are damned no matter what they do. Race tomorrow in the heat, have a...
Part of me can see that, but then another part of me looks at a track like Bloomington and wonders how you go about the reserve seating process when so much of the seating is hillside seating, or...
I like both, but if someone were to ask me to choose, my preference would be the non-wing. But regardless of which type of sprint car is on the track, I enjoy what I'm watching. I'm not one of these...
I've lived in Bloomington my whole life, too, but we must frequent different parts of town because my experiences with my hometown are nothing like yours...
No kidding. Folks around us seemed happy to be there and I personally was having a blast watching the Darland/Clauson/Clayton/Coons/Stanbrough gaggle change position in practically every turn :6:
No, it is the same car. What Dickie shared with us before the season was that on one day he was still the driver going into this year, and two days later Tate told him that he felt he should get to...
I have plenty of experience with Brownstown. I don't know, maybe it's the late model fan in me, but when I'm at Brownstown I'm prepared to wear home several layers of dirt. For whatever reason, they...
Keithly is damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. You know why? Because race fans have to be the most fickle people, period. There's simply no satisfying some of you. If you're not complaining,...
