Still sad the track lost two big money making races, but glad to see the Thursday night program has returned to openwheel racing only.

I hope that is correct information Kevin. Last years program was too long in my opinion. An all open wheel night would be great. According to both USAC & CRA schedules that were previously announced, the CRA JEGS Late Models (Crates) are on the Thursday night schedule with the CRA Super Series (Super Lates) along with the USAC Silver Crown and Midgets for Friday night. The ARCA schedule still has LOR listed for July but no confirming date yet. As we all know, all schedules this time of year are subject to change.

I too am hoping the info is correct. I know what was released prior, but hopefully this is what it turns out to be. I would think a press release from the track would be correct. I didn't care for the stock car part of the program either. Too much to try and squeeze in for one night. Plus, I didn't really care about it anyway....not the reason I was there.

I'll never call it anything else. You can stick whatever name on it you want. Plus, they change it every other year it seems so it's hard to keep up.
