I bet Milka's return is partially sponsored by TG & KK so that the new CCWS teams feel like they are making progress because they will at least finish ahead of Milka. It is unfortunate that talented female racers are scraping to get by while Milka gets invited back to the series to continue her "moving chicane" status.

IMO - I am glad to see the unification. I am excited to see a 50/50 split schedule. I just hope that the road/street portion isn't dominated by poorly done street races. At least with well designed road courses there are places where passing is possible and safe. As is, most street courses are follow the leader or crash into the concrete while attempting to pass. Remember the champ car race a few years ago where the street course went over a set of RR tracks. The cars were ramping over the tracks.

I hope they get Laguna Seca and Elkhart Lake back on the schedule, then maybe Barber, Miller....

Gonna be at Eldora & Lawrenceburg in a just a few weeks. Looking forward to another exciting sprint car season. But also, I am looking forward to Indy, Kentucky and maybe Belle Isle. I heard there was a conflict between Mid Ohio and a hopeful canadian race. Maybe this causes mid ohio to move off its current weekend. As is, it conflicts with Haubstadt's sprint week date. I would love to go to Mid Ohio, I only live an hour away from it, but I will be at Bloomington & Haubstadt that weekend....
