I was surprised by the lack of Sprints.

By moving the practice to Thursday - none of the USAC cars could attend. With the USAC double header in a couple weeks - I sure hope you schedule a couple more practices that fit their schedule.

I would have thought that any sprint car that is going to run for burg championship would have wanted to be there.

I would have thought any midwest all star running for points would have been there.

Obviously, I am missing something.

Only thing I can come up with - either - so many practices have been canceled that they were afraid to tow and find another last minute cancellation - or the cost of fuel and the economy - just do not justify a practice session.

Sure hope for a great sprint turnout saturday - but, with the sprint turnout tonight - leaves some concern in my mind.

BTW - how close to the wall did the Sprints venture tonight? Has the wall been "christened" yet? Is the wall painted (if not, will it be painted?)

Did they cut a ribbon for the opening - or is that Saturday night?

would be neat to have a big ribbon across the start/finish line - and have the car "cut" the ribbon at speed.

Did they use the FM radio with the announcer tonight?

What Frequency?
