Once a year for the past 5 years when I come out for the 500.

Why, NON-WINGED SPRINTS, NON-WINGED SPRINTS, NON-WINGED SPRINTS!!!!!! /don't get me wrong, I still like the Eastern Winged sprints over the modified cars, but I hope some day they take the wings off like ARDC midgets did a few years ago. We will be there again the Friday before the 500, when I retire I am coming out for Indiana Sprint and Midget week.

Thanks everyone

1.when did I start going to Bloomington speedway? - when a pit pass and ticket prices were cheaper.
2. what my favorite thing about Bloomington speedway is? - higher pit pass prices and higher tickets.

but I did forget the purse increased.

Guess they could park all the track working equipment as gas and diesel prices are probably 4x what they were in this era you are talking about, that should save them some money. Chris was looking for constructive input from true race fans and you come in with your negativity to drag this thread down like others do on all the other threads. Good job sir you have done what you came to accomplish.
