Just went to Spoon a few weeks ago for steel block sprints and several fender classes. I did a head count of only 68 people in the stands, worst crowd I’ve ever seen at a track. Track prep was great...

2-way speakers are like triple the cost. Good horn speakers like what Haubstadt has work great for a lot less money. In fact, the horn speakers at Terre Haute used to be more than loud enough. We...

One of the greatest sprint car races I’ve ever seen! It’s one thing to run that close on a quarter mile, but to do it at twice the speed on a half mile with the cars lurching around makes it the most...

Grant #4, Pursley/ Bacon

-With Grant out of the 4 car for the remainder of sprint week, will the team put in a substitute?
- Where’s Daison Pursley been? Thought he was running sprint week.
- No major winged races till...

Great racing both nights.
Unfortunately not a great crowd turn out. There are some local non-wing fans, just not enough. There is a new tower with even more suites in turn 2 so hard to estimate how...

FYI the Chili Bowl is a non-winged event. All your favorites can be seen elsewhere. I Prefer the irrelevants like Grant and Seavey, who run real man sprint cars and then go win the 2024 Chili Bowl.

I went both nights this year and it was worth it for all the reasons mentioned above. Track surface is for wings but still a decent show. Stayed at a really cheap crunch a bug motel in Oskaloosa and...

Apparently USAC needs to erase a bunch of wins credited to Hoffman’s. A Bacon/Francowiack partnership is not Hoffman Auto Racing. I respect Hoffman’s but if I were them I would not accept credit for...

Kyle Larson is afraid of half miles so if you follow his low limit series he’ll try to indoctrinate you into wings and small tracks. I for one have a brain and can obviously see non-wing at Terre...

Hopefully winged racing completely fails in the state of Indiana. Kevin Newton should be concentrating on growing silver crown racing. Winged racing sucks. I’ve been watching it for 40 years and...

Great show from point of view. Damn good modified race and the crown cars were spectacular. Crowd was ok. The sheep’s foot mishap caused about a 15 minute delay but otherwise a well run program. I...

Too bad Kyle Larson hasn’t invested a single penny into non-winged racing of any kind. As far as I’m concerned, he is the biggest threat/enemy of USAC. Look what he did to the All Stars. The one good...

I was there last year and watched track prep on Saturday. I kept wondering why they weren’t watering it more. It was a total joke how little track prep they actually did. So this year I made a wise...

The winged sprints really sucked compared to the midgets. Tonight when the wings come on I’m switching over to football.

Du Quoin

Hopefully Flo starts at 10am for USAC’s second longest running event so we can see the crown cars at their best in hot laps. I usually attend in person but can’t this year. Surprised to see Don Droud...

This has been a rule for a long time. The logic is you can’t allow gamesmanship to take advantage of track conditions. If a driver knows a track will be better early or later in qualifying they could...

It was not doable. A tow truck spun out and got stuck just trying to go up the backshute exit and get on the track. It was way too slimy all around the track to push off cars. The tack itself was not...
