I love this event! I attended the first year, when it was a two day event. I only went to the features, which were run on a Sunday afternoon. The ticket price was the same whether you attended one or both days. That was changed the next year, after much complaining about the policy. I attended during the period when it was a three day, a two day and whatever. I attended the Friday night WoO show last year as well. First time I had seen a winged car at Eldora. I attended the first WoO finale in 1978, but they didn't have wings then. The WoO show was nothing spectacular, and I decided it was not worth a return visit. I will be there in my usual patio seats on Saturday night. Last year, the rains came on Saturday and the features were run on Sunday afternoon. Lots of torn up cars, but the racing was good. I believe we wound up with something like eight midgets running, but it was a great race. Biggest downer of all was the concession stand running out of pizza steaks (burgers) on Sunday. Those things are unbelievably popular! Fortunately, the fans were understanding, and the National Guard did not have to be summoned!
