Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm calculating a potential back gate fee ( according to the entry blank) for this event of $415 BEFORE I even unload my midget. I also noticed that FOUR starting spots (see entry blank) have been eliminated for the Saturday midget feature which calculates to $4000 less (based on last year's starting spots) being paid to the midget owners/drivers. If history repeats itself, 20 spots will go to USAC regulars and 4 spots to non USAC competitors. If the USAC provisional rules are used, then that's even more bad news for non USAC cars. Just reporting here what the promoters have published.
Uh oh Don you have violated two rules here on IOW: 1. you are stating facts and 2. you are speaking in negative waves against USAC.
