I agree Mike. When I first started going to HMS part of the reason I went was because of running winged sprints every week. The good thing is Tim is not over reaching and has a very pragmatic view of the track and realistic goals (no illusions of grander of being the next Knoxville or Eldora..). If there is enough communication and personal interaction between Tim and the racers of every division, hopefully the half mile stigma will wear off enough to have full fields of everything. I've handed out flyers many times for various tracks and Hartford scares the s&*t out of many of them so much they just hand the flyer right back to me. We will see... like you said, baby steps, crawl - walk - run.
