I've attended Springfield every year the race has been held since Jack Hewitt won his very first Bettenhausen Memorial. The past 4 or 5 have been as entertaining and exciting as any racing I've seen on a bull ring. The car counts are through the roof but the spectator crowds have not improved much at all. Hard to figure.

The Horn Memorial is usually very good, as well. Why these races do not draw is a mystery. Tickets are very affordable and the fact that the respective fair's are going on is a plus and should be an added incentive!

I know one thing for sure, I'll be at both Mile's as long as they race on them.
