I heard that SCORA having 5 races there is why MSCS wont be there.Not sure if this is true.

I wondered if someone would bring that up...I hope that isn't the case, but you never know.

Do you suppose purse payouts or something along these lines have something to do with it? Just a thought.

Dan,

Very good point. This track being in the great state of Illinois, aka Late Model Country, I am sure that the promoter saw an opportunity to pay a smaller purse with SCORA than MSCS. He is taking a chance with 5 sprint car shows and I would think that played into the decision.

If you look at most track schedules, most have not deviated much from the past. Economic times being tough, promoters and track owners are sticking to proven successful shows at their speedway. We need to be thankful that someone is going out on a limb to test the water.

I was glad to see a good turn out at Flora for both shows but neither race was much to see. If it hadn't been for Levi showing up for the 2nd race it would have really sucked.

I think its funny they cancelled MSCS though for the SCORA series.
