For those of you that left early, SHAME ON YOU!
Aside from maybe the Micro-Feature, the other 4 (Hornet Make-up included) were fast, furious, and wild! They all were flat out, beatin' n' banging, tight fought and exciting events! (The Micro's had a very fast event that was shortened slightly for time and most of the action was for 2nd thru 4th)
The rain certainly made the track fast, as it reminded me of a MASS race back some six to eight years ago when a 15 minute downpour soaked the track a bit worse than the roughly 30 minute light rain shower of tonight. But it got worked in and the feature was a blazing fast and furious race! Tonight was similar, though the track a lot narrower due to all the rain (some 2+ inches) from nearly all week. Bear in mind, Bloomington doesn't really have the track equipment to deal with that much water.
Curiously, I do wonder whatever happened to the tiller-tractor they had towards the middle part of last season? I think it's certainly time to get it back out and keep it available and retire some of the other equipment. Either way, hopefully the weather will cooperate this week to allow time to really put some work in Turn 1 which has been utterly rough and form several holes the past few weeks.
Finally, glad to see all the driver's who had trouble tonight come out okay. Especially Bryan H. who took an absolute high-flying ride into the wall and fence in turn 1 in his Sprinter. While it's rare to see a car get near the actual fence, I do hope the Bloomington Speedway staff will take a long hard look and strongly consider updating it as soon as possible.
All in all, not too bad of a night. Good luck to everyone tomorrow!
