I'm I seeing this right that of the 12 shows with no other sanction that you arent running the 410's on 5 of the 12 shows?

Look up at the Top this is a Tentative schedule and subject to change! Geez people they are racing almost every week just like always and for years now there season has ended in August! What more do you all want! Plus they added a Bob Kinser Memorial on August 17th which will be awesome to Have that Trophy sitting on your mantle for some driver! Try and think more positive everyone and just be glad they are running at all!

Indeed, hopefully a few more things need ironed out before schedule gets updated. A few of the dates make sense, with an area track running a big show and not scheduling the 410's against them [e.g. Lincoln Park in July]. While others are a tad more headscratchy, such as the season final and a few others. Hopefully the 410's will be added on a few more dates, but overall all 4 main classes are equal with 11, mods getting 12.
Still, it would be nice seeing those 4 every normal week with a few exceptions for special events or certain events elsewhere to allow that class participation. Hence when other classes can join the card or be swapped with. Nevertheless It's a racing and can't wait until it starts. Lastly, hopefully September will be used for makeups. I do get why the lack of scheduling there as once school [and high school football for that matter] starts back up, attendance plummets pretty badly. And it's tough trying to start any earlier than April. This is similar to what Kokomo did a few years back for the same reason. Let's have some good weather come race time and get em all in! |

I wish Gas City had a schedule like Bloomington! Be thankful for what you have.

A schedule like this could in theory lead to a schedule like Gas City if the fans all skip out on the weekends without a true headline class.
(To me there are only 3 headline classes 410 Sprints and 410 Winged and super late models. Everything else is a stepping stone and a support class. I just have no interest in going to an event where support classes are the only classes. I seem to not be alone) |
