1) the track is rented
2) The weather was very threatening - last year the 2 races here had nice crowds
3) Given a reasonable cross over among fans, another issue particularly given #2 above - the Blackhawks were at Detroit in the Western conference finals and it has been years since the Hawks have been relevant and they have generated a ton of interest.
The goals of this series are not quite the same as others - and the great reason to take this series to this track - particularly for the Regional Midgets - is that Ilianna is a very big and fast 1/2 mile and it is a great step up from the Anderson/Mt Lawn/Plymouth that they normally run. The two midget shows ran last year were a bit better (fewer yellows) but all in all it wasn't bad at all and as always was done at a reasonable time - there were be two more shows there -the next is June 24
