The production seemed well organized and efficient. I think the feature ended before 10 PM Indy time.
The production on Flo was good. Dillon Welch and ? were very informative without talking too much IMO.
I guess I don’t understand the resistance to this production/operation/League IF they stick with their midweek plan. It pays good money to win and start, and provides an opportunity for racers to cash an extra check that wouldn’t be available to them otherwise. And again, IF they stick to their stated plan of attempting to bring the product to locations that don’t traditionally run sprint cars, it MIGHT make some new fans. Not sure what I’m missing that makes this such a bad thing!
Just to answer your question mark, the other announcer was Dustin Jarrett. He announces a lot of the big late model shows with Ben Shelton. Dustin is sort of a track chaser and I believe Lincoln Park was career track #316 he stated yesterday on Facebook while posting a view of the track from the announcer's booth.
