Not at all. Unlike your idea for Illinois Midget Week, this move by POWRI is an original idea. One in which they're taking risk. It will add something to the scene, instead of trying to steal the thunder of someone else's event in order for your idea to work. Plus, it guarantees the near term future of that track. Be honest now, if you would have asked Kenny Brown to run an Illinois Midget Week the week immediately after Indiana Midget Week, what do you think the chances of getting him to agree to that idea would have been? I say slim to none. Midget racing has a smaller fan base than sprint racing does and the last thing anybody needs to start their series is a bunch of race fans that are still financially tapped out from chasing races at another series the week before. But, you didn't think the Gold Crown finale was worth going to, so I don't think you and I are going to see eye to eye on racing matters anyway.
