As a fan, I am upset with the Midget Money Speedweek. In the past, it was a build up to the Belleville Midget Nationals, and it appeared that both events benefited from each other. This year, the last speedweek event is the Sunday before Belleville. I am not sure how this will impact the car counts of each.

As fans, we have no real insight as to the ******** and the $ that go into decisions regarding scheduling events and sanctioning bodies for those events. I am sure that Kevin is having to deal with far too many IFs, plus HE SAID, THEY SAID crap, and sponsorships, and his own bottom line. Let's be patient and wait for the firm schedules for the track, USAC, and POWRi. I agree with Jerry and others in hoping that more midget events are scheduled there. I also hope that the sanctioning bodies can put away their egos at least long enough to provide the best for the racers and the fans.

I have a theory of the open parts to the schedule, but it would not be popular here, so I will pass.

So you are trying to win the popularity contest?

Just don't want to get people worked up. Must be slacking in my old age. I'll put it this way it didn't exactly sneak up on me.
