Maybe since it rained out, the rain will bring up some more rocks and they can get some more rocks out to make things safer. I haven't been there yet this year, talking about CC not TH, I was last year and thought it was nice and had great potential, only complaint I ever heard from anyone was the rocks which I'm partial to since I'm going blind in my right eye from a rock incident in my younger days at a track. Mother nature sucks most of the time, so far this year most local dirt racing a bust, crappie season a bust for the most part, mushroom season a bust for the most part, all the things I just mentioned being weather related, noones fault, just part of life and in the racing world we all pay for it, owners, promoters, track officials/employees, teams, fans, drivers, etc. Only people that win with a rainout are the whiney ass people making "noise complaint" calls.

To set the record straight, the Hulman Classic was traditionally a Sunday afternoon event. Hot laps at noon. It was the first weekend in May when practice started at Indy. Running on Sunday afternoon didn’t directly conflict with any weekly racing in Indiana and fans and cars would pack the place. Running at night on the weekend has already proven to be a bust at Terre Haute with bad car counts and attendance. That is why Track Enterprises moved most events to weekdays and it was successful for a number of years. I think it was a very bad decision by the fair board to try to do what they are doing. Sprint week is on a Wednesday and I’m sure they will make up some of their losses but if fans don’t support that one, I would suspect they will either go out of business or maybe try winged racing next year. Unfortunately, USAC racing just isn’t very popular anymore on the big tracks. Eldora won’t book them alone, Knoxville didn’t draw flies, Salem, Springfield and Du Quoin crowds are pathetic. Terre Haute had a niche on Weekdays and should stick to it.

So 4 days after he complains about streaming killing his business, he’s promoting what he was complaining about? Tweeting out watch it for free. I’m so confused
