Running against Lincoln Park with similar payout certainly isn't helping the counts. 16 Here, 17 There, That's 33 running within an hour of each other.

Don't expect this show next year. Why would they pay 4K to win and get 16 cars? Racers gotta support big races...smh

So who won the points in sprints this year can't find any info on that.

I'd say it's that time of year, park the car, and get the kids off to school, take a chance on blowing it up for 300.00, might get into next year's budget.

We had one blow up in qualifying already. So it's 15 cars now.

Very sad indeed. Bloomington always runs on Friday night. Lincoln Park always runs on Saturday night. Why did Lincoln Park run a show on Friday night against Bloomington? Looks like a feud between tracks..JMO.

LPS has been on the schedule all year for a two day Friday/Saturday event. Bloomington just added this race a few weeks ago.

Not quite, Lincoln Park had their race scheduled all year. This was a make up event of sorts in that nothing was planned till a few weeks ago. Since all the big sprint races were able to be run there was no need for a big race makeup. However with numerous other rain outs they made this special event to combine some of those rain outs. They picked a bad week to do it though.
This could be a thing next year. Just needs to be scheduled better. |

I think this just was the wrong weekend for this race. The USAC regulars are off to Ohio and five cars that would probably have run Bloom or LPS towed to Lucas Oil Speedway for the 3 day Hockett memorial.
