Wrong...Last years ISW race was one of the last two races of the year, and Bob Sargent along with the O'Connors handled the race. The track was great as well. I know this because I was actually at the race and spoke with both parties. Also to clarify, the fair board at THAT did screw Sargent and the O'Connors after promising them a contract for 2011. It wasn't so much about the concessions, but the fact that decisions were being made that worked against the promoters ability to run the track successfully. Like a lot of things, there is ******** involved on the fair board as well as individuals in different roles that create possible "conflicts of interest". No decent promoter in his or her right mind would touch THAT under the current set of circumstances. I think USAC picked it up because they were trying to keep racing alive at Terre Haute. End result, maybe they shouldn't have. Nothing will change until the fair board is confronted and decisions are made in the best interests of racing at Terre Haute.
