I don't know the format being used..but I think the drivers like qualifying..in most cases with pill draw you have a bad draw your pretty much screwed the rest of the night, especially if you are in a loaded heat..It gives the lower budget teams a little more of a chance plus gives them extra seat time. I am excited for Friday..I actually just got off the phone with Mel not to long ago. I think Gas City is going in the right direction. Jiggs did a phenomenal job with the place and I think Mel can take it to new heights. I just hope everyone gives the track a chance..look past the bleachers etc..plus you will get to see sprint cars and midgets on the same bill each night

I have known Mel for 40 years. I had the chance to talk with him briefly at Kokomo on Saturday night and he seems very excited with the chance to promote Gas City/I-69 Speedway. I told him that I wished him all the luck in the world. I also told him that we would be there with our butts in the bleachers as many race nights as possible. Looking forward to midgets joining the program on a regular basis.

Come on Johnny, You can't tell me you didn't enjoy The Stash going second to last at the Burg and setting fast time?
Or Leary laying a hell of a lap at Brownstown, I was sitting up in one and he was just digging for all it was worth. Qualifying ROCK, Its from the Days of Yore and It should be found all along I-84 On a not so lesser note, THE STASH will be at GC fri and Eldora Sat.

a bad draw for starting position is no worse than a bad draw for timetrialing position, I'm sorry folks, but for the most part I see it as a waste of time, a track prep determent and a set up for follow the leader racing/ aside from that, which I see as a miniscule issue, I wish the new promoter well and hope the midgets take off right out of the box and do nothing but continue to grow from there!
