Speaking of the format, it was nice to see the heat races actually mean something after they were total formalities last Saturday at the Action Track.

I thought the heats were better at Terre Haute. You should have heard the confused dad trying to explain to the kids what the heats were for. As for the extra cars, I believe that was to allow both sanctioning bodies provisionals. I like to see feature spots earned not given. I also think if you don't like making the feature, do better. I have seen slow cars that did not belong in the feature screw up while getting lapped and take out the leader.
