racing is great at kokomo and TSS,however at TSS I can carry in my own food and drinks(including alcohol) and the reserve seats are much more comfortable.

You also don't get pelted with mud balls on the bottom half of the grandstands at Tri-State.

Be prepared to see several laps turned by the John Deere's...but it is well worth the wait as Helfrich gets the track in ideal racing shape almost every night. It will be tough to beat Kokomo's ISW event of 2011, but I look forward to watching the competition TSS has in store

Sprintweek at Kokomo was about 3rd or 4th on the list for best shows at Kokomo this year! I've been to Haubstadt many times and it has some good racing, but it is more of a low and high swap in the corners where Kokomo is more of 2 and 3 grooves through the corners, also they carry much more speed through the corners at Kokomo.

To me it's part of the experience... We laughed our tails off (except for the shot to the beans I took). I'll take clay balls over dust any day of the week.

Koolaid, I didn't say mud balls weren't fun. I stated that you won't have them at Tri-State.

I been thinking bout what everybody says bout the John deere show. I don;t remember it holding up any raceing cuz its done before the races start and dureing intermistion so whats the problem ? Like I have always said people ***** and moan bout it but after the races you just see smiles on their faces
