According to the article in the Anderson newspaper this morning, it still says that it is a 200 lap race. Of course, with that rag it could be anyone's guess. I guess we will find out either tonight or on Saturday.

I talked to Rick Dawson, Owner of Anderson Speedway this evening and he confirmed that it remains a 200 lap, USAC National Points paying race. Who ever heard, thought they heard, had a dream or vision that it was 100 laps can now rest easy. THERE IS NO TRUTH TO THIS RUMOR according to officials at Anderson Speedway. I hope that the weather is good and the racing is great.

VERY IMPORTANT........

I read some ad copy tonight that said it would be a 100 lap race - I asked people to double check and be sure -- it is a 200 lap races - I also said that later

I just hope that this rumor doesn't hurt the crowd for Saturday night. Rick is one the the good promoters and doesn't need this kind of a problem. And a 200 lap USAC National midget race for only $15 is a great deal. I hope people will turn out for a great night of racing and show support for one of the really good promoters.

Talked to the 67 twins last night - Henry and Daren - they are coming expecting 200 laps so I don't think it's been changed to 100.

Sandy,

If you were at the Wednesday night USAC show, Rick Dawson offered a $10.00 discount for Saturday night when you present your ticket stub from the Wednesday night show. We had a little rain shower move through and it held up the show for a short period of time and Rick rewarded the folks who came and stayed.
