These folks have done an amazing job with this great Hoosier race track. Whatever night they get, I will have my ass in a seat. Well done!

I would like to see Paragon replace the no national points, no ISW points waste of time they had at the dirt track at IMS.

Paragon should definitely be a part of ISW next year. The owners have done a tremendous job of upgrading the facility.

Paragon definitely deserves a ISW date next year. Their improvements have been noticed by everyone. Here's the problem IMS and USAC have got to agree on:

The 2026 Brickyard 400 will take place Sunday, July 26. Again, right in the middle of sprint week.

Let's face it: The IMS sprint car race was clearly a hit. The stands were full. Now how do both parties figure out a way to grow the IMS sprint car race in another way, and reward Paragon with a ISW date. Let's hope both happen.

They could at least make it pay ISW and National Points.

What USAC did at IMS was smart and was the same thing they did at Action Track USAC but they took 1 extra step. It was important to see if it would work first before making it a point race

I just watched 6 classes with a average of 20 cars each get the first two features in by 10pm

If you can't run it open to anyone and make it points. DON'T HAVE IT.
