Although I was highly supportive of the decision to move to Labor Day weekend because of weather, I was highly disappointed in driver attendance. I would much rather chance the weather and sit in the cold to see all of the nations top drivers there and not have to contend with other premier events.

Also, being from Illinois, I'd love to see the Gold Crown ran with non-wing sprints again. Even if it was Friday non wing/Saturday MOWA. We've seen different combinations over the years (non-wing/MOWA/600s) but haven't seen the "open wheel extravaganza" and seeing non wing and wings all in the same weekend.

Regardless...it's still my go-to event of the year. I will continue to support it, no matter when it is! Thanks Kevin and Tammy for all you've done with this event.
