I would certainly come out from Springfield, Illinois. I would strongly support dropping Las Vegas. Would really like the opportunity to see several new California tracks.

The selling point for me would be to have a schedule similar to Indiana Sprint Week rather than having large gaps between races. This year ISW had races on Friday-Sunday and Tuesday-Saturday. While Tuesday wasn't an official ISW race, it was a sprint car race with over 20 sprinters and a good crowd. A lot better than sitting around a motel room.

Another suggestion would be to hold the support classes to a minimum. I know times are rough, tracks aren't making much money, and all the other very real problems. However, these would be special shows and I doubt if many of us Midwesterners would be disappointed if we didn't see 3 or 4 stock car classes.

I hope this happens. I don't think many of us would rather scoop snow in the Midwest than watch sprints in California.
