Seem to be a lot of people thinking they're entitled to see a race every weekend, which just further illustrates that promoters are damned no matter what they do. Race tomorrow in the heat, have a less than stellar show, someone suffers heat exhaustion, and the whole cyberworld would hear about it. Cancel because of the heat and related heat advisories, and the whole cyberworld hears about it...
I, for one, think Gas City and Bloomington made the right call when they chose to cancel. While I was planning to sit on the hill wearing as little as possible, the drivers don't exactly have that option. Nor do the EMS workers. Or the concession workers. Am I disappointed? Sure. I look forward to Friday night all week. But I'll survive. And I applaud Mike and Jiggs for making the correct, yet unpopular, decision.
