Sun - THAT
Mon- off
Tues- Burg

The IMS deal should not be part of ISW as it’s not a normal procedural show. While I’d love all USAC events to be procedurally like IMS, I’m not of the majority. I remember a statement made about Bloomington being part of this since day one and they run Friday so tradition dictates. If tradition is the worst track of the week then I’m again not in the majority. This year was a disgrace. Figure it out for a couple of years then maybe get a prime date again. A lot of folks and teams are burned out at the end of the week and don’t necessarily want to travel to TSS for the finale. That’s unfair to Tommy and his hard working family. I feel the first wknd schedule is logistically worthwhile, gives two hard working tracks a prime nite on first wknd and travel right up 41 for Sunday. As time progresses another shake up could happen to keep it fresh again. I agree with my Indiana friend who never misses an ISW event that change is needed. I’ll get beat up for it but maybe the same old same old is just that.
IMS has shown they belong as an option for Sprint Cars, just not ISW. This schedule makes sense and could work for 2026 and beyond.

Pretty sure Tommy has sprint week final night locked in.
