I feel the same way. Long Drives and and no matter how you look at it $50 bucks or much more if traveling to go to the races. even if the track only gets 20-25 of it you still got a tank of gas and four or five hours involved if not more. Under three heats, No Consi is almost not worth it. At the local track I know many of the teams in the other classes as well and that helps make a overall show. But if Im traveling a distance and know only the sprint's it can be disappointing.

Someone else posted they don't know many of them drivers. Well some of them are pretty darn good for the equipment they have. BOSS has PA drivers, MI drivers. Think one from WV. and Several OH and IN. Westfall, DD, Simon, Cottle, Smith, most know them, they've been around awhile. Fischesser and Owen, Midaugh, Gardner and others can put on runs, I expect Dickie Gaines to join tonight.

Come on down to Burg, Weather is perfect.
Gotta disagree with you Chuck, if you took out the BOSS regulars there would have been less cars than Bloomington, even at that there were more GOOD cars at Bloomington. Second the construction on 37 north of Bloomington is keeping cars and fans from making that trip from the north. One thing I do agree with is that the Racesavers have taken some drivers/cars away from the 410 class which I think was the opposite of what they had hoped would happen.
