Some have even resorted to insulting other tracks that have absolutely nothing to do with the Lawrenceburg car count. Then we see posts that claim the dozen or so sprint cars present at Lawrenceburg put on what could only be deemed a classic. The truth is that last weekend there were probably only three sprint car teams at LPS and Paragon that would have gone to Lawrenceburg on any occasion and remember that sprint cars were the support series to midget week at Lawrenceburg. Maybe the business model is wrong. Maybe Lawrenceburg is really a modified or late model track. Maybe there are not enough sprint car teams in the area to support sprints being the main attraction. Whatever the case, it seems that one should look closer to Lawrenceburg for solutions to the problem, if there is one, than Putnamville or Paragon. Both have established themselves as Saturday night fixtures in west central Indiana. They are less than 25 miles apart and don't try to steal each other's thunder. The stands are filled every week with people who come to watch their neighbors, cousins, in-laws, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters run. Oh, they have their little complaints, but they settle them between themselves. They don't expect other tracks to settle them. Good luck to you in the southeast in finding a solution. Rant mode off.
