Maybe schedule 2 races and give yourself a chance to get at least 1 of them in. I know its asking a lot for Gas City to schedule something other than non-wing sprint cars, but some nights it would be a good idea. Like the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. They had 21 cars. Why? Because so many drivers were racing at either Anderson or the Indy mile. To me that would be a great night to schedule a late model race or winged sprint race. After sprintweek the car count always drops to around 20 and the crowd goes down also. Instead of running a regular program and getting a poor turnout, do something different and bring some new people to the track. Jiggs used to be great at that, but in recent years its been forgotten.
I'm sure this will fall on deaf ears as it usually does. But that's why I live 1 mile from the track and almost never go.

Thanks for not going, you would bum me out if I had to sit by you and listen to this person....
You cant predict weather when the schedules are made. The regular shows at Gas City are what pays the bills so to speak. The special shows usually cost more to bring in. Wings cost more, late models, ect... Go east and watch that stuff. Its a shame you dont like some of the best racing Indiana has to offer right around the corner from ya.
