Our group attended Kokomo, then camped the tour from TH- Tristate. A family commitment made it so that only one of us made it to the LPS make up. Time together, especially racing time, is absolutely priceless.
I think this thing is growing on its own so not sure i'd change much if anything. Kokomo one again had itself a potential record crowd, and the camping trail seemed even bigger than last year. I have to encourage anybody who's always thought about making the trip(s) to DO IT!!! Even w/ back to back rain outs, it was so much fun. We love seeing and talking to out of state fans, the "I remember you from last year!" faces, and especially the first timers. Side note: i'm now 0-4 at TH but on the plus side i finally got to see green flag laps.
If the camper thing does continue to grow my only wishlist item would be shower facilities at the track.
Seems that more and more drivers are doing an ISW exclusive shirt so hopefully that's supplementing the grind of racing it. I have wondered if a 3 team competition (4 drivers each plus alternates) based on territory would bring some extra flare. Similar to what Western Springs NZ does. Team Indiana, Team Midwest, & Team U.S. earning points for finishes that either go toward an overall Team award or to their starting position of a special 20 lap finale. But again, this thing is growing on its own so not sure messing w/ it now is a good thing.
