Would you let what happened at THAT, with the silver crown race, affect your decision on attending THAT for sprint week? Does anyone know for certain who is prepping the track for Sprint week?

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unless the O'Conners or Tommy is doing the track, I will be going elsewhere or just partying in the parkinglot at THAT during SprintWeek...

I'll be there. I've been through (as a lot of others on this board have) every promoter the Action Track has had since the 60's. When that track is prepared right it still is one of the best in the country. I would hope USAC is on the phone as I write this doing whatever it takes to get the right people hired to prep the track.

Henry and I will be there. We have plane tickets, a car, and a room. All we can do is hope they get it fixed.

I wouldn' miss the last race at THAT for anything. After all the posting I'm sure it will be a memory soon.

I don't see anyone like the O Conner's saving the day after the fair board screwed them out of promoting the track.

I will still be there. We have Jack Kraemer Memorial money to give away that night.

THAT is one of my all time favorite tracks. That and Eldora. Both have gone down hill. Life goes on and, fortunately, there are other options. As for sprint week, I'll wait and see. I really hope USAC will respond in a positive way to this debacle. A good sprint week show would heal many wounds.

I am mixed on it, if they are going to do track prep like last time, and with the demo derby on the front stretch on Monday, I say give it to LPS this year. Spiker runs a good track and deserves a shot at an SW date. I am not saying give it to him every year, as THAT deserves to have one when it can be prepped right.

If they continue with ISW THAT date, I won't make it, as I have to work. I guess I will get to go to another race later on in the season (if it gets betteR).
