I would rather it be daylight at 5:30 in the morning than 10:00 at night. If you go on the site and read negative effects this has on children alone you might think differently.

This is done for alot of people. Kids getting on a school bus in the morning, remember this starts when school is still going and after it starts in the fall. Alot of sporting goods makers want daylight in the evening. Softball players-golf-water craft-bike riders. Sorry to say they would out number the dirt racers. Also for people with bad eye sight problems.

Being around education I understand golf, bikes and ball leagues, but
I'm getting ready for 9 pm drivers education so we can actually use the lights. In the fall and spring it would make a lot of difference in delays and cancellations.
Place me in the central for many reasons, not just racen.

I guess it would be too difficult to move start times back 1 hr

Guess you dont work then because pushing it back an hour makes one less hour of sleep before work. If you think it will make track conditions better just look at Kokomo or Bloomington the last 2 weeks(TSS is already on CDT or I would use that as an example too) if you work hard and know what you are doing it doesnt matter about the extra hour of daylight.

If these tracks are more worried about getting you an extra hour of sleep than they are putting on a good show for the fans, maybe we will re-think our trip to Sprint-Week !!! 2500 mile round trip and a couple grand, is alittle much for rubbered up, follow the leader, 25 MPH around the bottom !!!!

88 Degrees at 10:00 PM....?

My point is Pine is that a good track and a good show isnt about an hours difference in start time. Its in the expertise of the track preparer. you do what you want with your $ but if you get a rubbered up track dont blame DST cause I've seen good tracks and bad tracks since DST and the reason behind them all is the guy sitting on the tractor not the guy sitting in the statehouse as many here seem to believe.

I understand that Hoov, but I've heard numerous times (don't know how true it is) that the track USAC was running wanted to re-do the track for the B-Main or the A-Main and USAC said no. It happened here for the Eastern Swing (So it was said). I think you guys have USAC and the Indiana promotors so brainwashed into getting home at 10:00, that their afraid to do anything that will prolong the program, with the possibilities of losing fans !!!! Even though EVERYBODY at the track knows the track is wore out and needs alittle TLC !!! SLEEP IS OVER-RATED !!!
