I was talking with the Donnie Beechler the other day, he said wouldnt it be nice if it was like the old days when the dirt points counted for champ car points now that would be neat, I went to my first fair race in 1966 and have went every year since, a couple off for living out of state. But there is nothing better than champ cars on the mile. Some years they will flip, track will be awful and one lane, but then there are years with Al Unser in the Johnny lighting spl. running the cushion and only a roll bar. Or Poncho Carter flapping his arms down the front stright to keep the blood flowing in them. And Chuck Gurney smoking everyone. Champ Cars on the mile is like poetry in motion. JMO older than most of you on here and still going to races
