I thought the same thing but then I thought Haubstadt has been rained out in the spring the past two years and maybe Bloomington doesnt want to take a gamble on the weather... just a thought

You guys haven't thought this through. Having the only two Outlaw races in the state on the same weekend is just bad business. Why split some fans between the two races by having them on the same weekend when you can split them up and get those fans for both shows? This is pretty simply a business decision by Helfrichs/Miles.

Not to mention THIS IS INDIANA, a 2 day show in April could be suicide

. I totally agree with you Kirk, not like we are going to get to see this show on $10 tickets. Can not wait for this race!

Anybody wanting to get a good seat better go now and put down a chair! That place will be packed to the rafters. (before anybody says anything, yes, I am aware of the chair policy at Bloomington) :2:

We'll be there. Remember seeing the WOO run there in the late 90's w/either, Sammy, Joey or Mark K. setting a track record somewhere around 9.3 sec. lap time. That is blaz'in fast no matter who you are.
