Luckily we live 2 hr to the east so we can go other places but it still is a hall. My point is Indiana is a great area to race, the hole state gets behind all types of racing so to say the name mini sprints has help grow the sport I would disagree. It is more the location you guys are at. Nothing to do with the name. I hate the name mini sprint and really not a big fan of lightning sprints but it is better then mini and more sanction bodys have gone this route so why not get behind this rather than re event the wheel? I personally feel your and everyone efforts would be better spent trying to get all these groups to combine several race each year to help grow the sport even more. It would do the sport good to have several so called national event that the midwest racers could go to. One in Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Colorado with pay out and rules that are the same. I really thought the Al.Archdale Memorial race would be the model for these events. If you and all the promoters would work together doing this it would do more to move this sport forward then a name change.

Well SAID Quantrill !!!!
