I don't understand the reason to have 5 classes of cars...nor will I ever...when you have a special race (sprint cars) with a larger purse you only need 2-3 total classes.
I think someone said Sprint cars would run first ALL night and it didn't happen...in fact the mini sprint feature had 23 laps of caution mixed in with their 20 lap feature that they ran FIRST...
The most important concern: Track prep or the lack of...I arrived at 2PM on Saturday and was surprised to see the track had NOT been touched for the races on Saturday...you could see the erosion down the track from the latest rain...Track prep is that track prep not running around the track with a sheeps foot a few laps only a few hours for the racing starts...You get out of track prep what you put into it....example Bloomington, and Tri-State Speedways...I know
everyone can't have all the nice John Deere equipment that Tom Helfrich has, and Mike Miles, at Bloomington Speedway does not either...He puts time into track prep and gives the racers and fans a good track week after week!...I understand the sun was out yesterday and it was warmer...I understand some work was done on the rough track conditions from the week prior, but I think a dry slick, dusty track in early April is very preventable!!

i agree with you on the support classes i think 3 classes total is all you need when you have a big event like that..brownstown done the same thing thing when they had the ice breaker lucas oil late models,superstocks,pure stocks and modifieds(god i hate those things) but i have learned when i go to twin cities thats its gonna be dry slick and dusty,big holes going into 1 and another one going into 3...and the double features didnt help anything usually they do run sprints all night first and i am always home in seymour by 10:45 -11:00
