The temperature doesn't always drop in that time frame. For example, it's 85 in Indy right now and it calls for a temp of 92 at 7:00. I'm not saying this is a bad/good idea, nor am I going to start ranting, I'm just speaking the truth. The sun doesn't go down til when? 9ish? My opinion is this. I don't think moving racing back 60 minutes will make that big of difference. I'm sure this thread will go on for months. Let the ******** again. Cheers.

DST has a huge effect on tracks. TSS is not on DST and ask Reece at Kokomo if it has an effect. That is the same as saying day racing is no different than night racing.
The new start time dosen't help me this Sat as I have to pick the wife up at the airport at 10:25 pm, but may help later this summer as iget off late alot of Saturdays. Hope it works out good.
