Bottom line, folks:
If the promoters at Kokomo do not make sufficient profit, that wonderful venue will not continue to offer the great racing that is currently available there.

Steve Sinclair is promoting the WoO Show actually though.

It's been a bit since I have been to Eldora. As I recall, the booze was pretty freaking cheap. My last time, I was seated next to some locals and they had extra beer in the cooler, so I was saved the trip up to the bar AND the low price, too. I guess the rules have changed since then. I wonder if the beer prices are still low. If I recall, they were even lower than at my local.

With all the available great racing back in Ind.I get a kick out of how some people find something to complain about I can't take my cooler full of beer in Oh Boo Hoo you poor thing Maybe they should just hand you some free food and drinks when you go in I have been to tracks everywhere and very very few allow you to bring anything in.With the very reasonable prices back there if you can't afford a coke and hot dog you should probably just stay home.Then you won't have to complain =====joe bochenek

To me is isn't the cooler issue at all. Its the Bullcrap of me having a mini umbrella in my inside jacket pocket and the guy at the gate asking what it was and demanding to see it. This was at the Klash last year and this is the kind of thing that when my choice is somewhere else or Kokomo. I choose SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Oh, We're going to loose two dollars over someone sneaking a pop in. How about loosing 30+ every time I choose not to go..............

[reeserx]

I'll take the great racing, excellent track conditions every Sunday night over not bringing a cooler in any day..might cost a little more in the end but man is it worth it!

Charles what was so hard about showing it was an umrella and not something else.Wish we had a Kokomo in Arizona I would gladly put up with all these trivial things

[Charles Nungester]

Probably the fact that it goes on nowhere else in Indiana. And it wasn't the first time. it was Gloves at the previous Klash. I had a slacks and a t shirt at sprint week and didn't get stopped.

I just get the feeling like The metal detectors at a ball park or something, Your assumed Guilty before even entering.

I can understand the no coolers. I don't like being searched. I'll take a couple extra bucks for a drink and be out temporaraly a couple bucks. The feeling of being picked over isn't temporary.


Oh and I wouldn't fly anywhere unless I had too, Due to TSA ect.
Its just me, or is it?

Like bojo20 says , all the complainers should be required to go to the west coast for a summer of racing . Then you'd be a whole lot less to bytch about here in Indiana .

[hoosier race fan]

I think what your really getting at here is, you don't feel very welcome there. One thing a lot of us love about racing is that you feel like you're at home when you are there. It's where you belong. I've been to Kokomo around 15 times. As many others have said, the racing is almost always very good, and that's what we (or at least most of us) are paying to see. I think some things about the place just make some people feel unwelcome. It doesn't stop me from wanting to go back though. Wish I could go tonight.
