Billy..........that's why we are thrilled to be teaming up with MMSA at two or three races as well as working with the RMLSA group on the Dodge City, Kansas race. As you can see by our schedule, they have two in Indiana and one in your back yard.....Flora,Illinois.

At this point, we are not trying to start a weekly series by any means. HELL NO! Our intentions are to supplement programs in whatever series that is interested here in the greater midwest. Mark tries to find an open date in a region and put one of our races in that slot offering EVERYONE a chance to run for more money. Or find a date that area's series is willing to co-sanction with MALS letting us bringing additional funds to the table and help all of Lighting Sprints. We ARE NOT TRYING TO COMPETE with any series. WE are not the enemy here....we are just trying to help Lightning Sprints with a few races in each series IF THEY WILL LET US. Our goal is to co-sanction two races with each series simply trying to help out. It amazes me that some groups don't want the extra funds for their racers...????

Dad...........I understand what you are saying about track size. Only personal problem I have with the small tracks......NOT ENOUGH SPEED. To me......RACING = SPEED. I am not saying we need to be going 130 mph in our type cars but I really like the 90-100 mph stuff. I will admit our cars probably put their best shows on tracks that produce 70-80 mph speeds..........quarter miles. But not the little bullrings that produce 35-50 mph. Here we go again, but in my opinion, 600's put on a better show on those little tracks. That is my second problem with little tracks.....we don't look as good as the 600's on little tracks. We look slow and cumber sum. Let them have their playground where they shine and we find our niche which in my opinion is quarter miles and slightly bigger. Throw in a good small 3/8 mile for the thrill seekers ever once in a while to hold their interest.

Also Dad...........I could agree with you....but then we'd both be wrong. LOL Just messin' with ya.
