No idea about Kokomo as I have not been there since 1977, but this is one of the main reasons I only attend a few races at the PAS each year. They can have the heats and b mains done by 8:30 and then take till after 10:30 to finish the show. I like how Ventura does it, one main finishes then the next pushes off right away and all winners are interviewed after the last race. Long nights were one of the things my now adult children cited as reasons they rarely wanted to attend.
