Chuck, I read posts on this site and other racing sites as do you and others do, and sometimes it makes you sit back and stare in bewilderment at the things people say - knowing we all have a right to voice our opinions. I know many of the drivers and team owners, to put it mildly put forth a lot of "Blood, Sweat and Tears," keeping there racing progarms going for an entire racing year. It ain't easy, but they are "True Grit" racers and teams and they keep moving ahead. And, because two race tracks, so close in proximity have scheduled a midget race the same day, is no reason to critcize each other - I do believe. By my way of thinking Terre Haute and Belle Clair are two fine racing grid irons, and I hope they both have a strong driver and fan turnout - personally I like both race tracks. For me, from where I live in Missouri, it is only 2.5 hrs driving time to Terre Haute - up to Indiana, watch the racing, and head back to Missouri the same day. Like you said, "the show must go on," and it will, and I hope the racing is good at both race tracks.
Chuck my friend, I would very much like to have been able to get the time off to go to Haubstadt on Saturday for the $10,000 to win non wingers. But, I will be working Sunday so that is a no go for me. Always a lot of fun chatting racing with the fine folks from Indiana - a good time indeed. So, let me know how that race goes at Haubstadt if you are going - thanks.

Have a good day...see you at the races
