I think I'm leaning towards Paragon since they've got the Midseason Stock Car Championship, then I can catch the Bomber Bash Next Week at Putnamville....... Plus Mike Ham just mooned USAC so I think I'd like to go shake his hand! Plus I know for sure of at least one sprinter I look forward to watching that should be there Saturday.

Why are people not bashing Paragon and Put. for running agianst ISW? Why start a thread the way you did, why not just say you got a "woody" for usac? You are always posting at the same time the races are taking place? Now somebody tell me I'm wrong and let the argument begin!

I am so mad at USAC for the mess they called THAT! Which I didnt attentd... I am not going to Gas City or Kokomo!!! Or it may have to do with my stupid brother getting married Saturday and I am expected to be at the rehearsal Friday also...

Take a look at look at the guys who ran the Tri-Track series in 82-83 (Kinsers, Marvel, K.Thomas, Parsons, Rager, Amati, Stabb, to name a few). Then tell me my family was wrong for being very happy and lucky to be a part of that series and other non-USAC, non-wing events. Tell me they were wrong for not caring how much money they won. Tell me they were wrong for not expecting anything from racing except for fun and great memories and a couple of bucks for making the feature from time to time. The fact that Putnamville and Paragon are still running on July 9th shows that a certain spirit of racing is still alive, in spite of USAC. Maybe in the future they can figure out how not to compete against each other and run on opposite nights. I don't know how long LPS and Paragon have been running on the same night, but it wasn't always like that. I'm surprised anybody wants to go to a USAC race at all since Paragon and Putnamville aren't on the schedule.

Makes me glad I'm an only child--with lots of proxy brothers and sisters here.

Sorry about your luck, bud. Was hoping to see you up there.

Hey Ty got an idea , if you miss the wedding you'll have no problems next year or all the anniversaries in the coming years , cause they'll be ISW every year .

i find it ironic that all the drivers you mentioned if there had been a usac event reasonably close on those nights thats is where they would have been

You might be right about that. USAC also had a much better reputation back then for being a stepping stone to Indy and some guys raced for bragging rights. Hard to tell what would happen today given the current situation with USAC. I'm not sure how they would have responded to some of USAC's recent decisions in the last few years.

Open Mic Night at Crackers Comedy Club in Broad Ripple is Tuesday!

Just one ? If you and your family have been going to Paragon and Put. for a life time why do you need to ask which one to go to this week?

So , back to the point, if you want to bash usac, I'm cool with that, b

ut do not wait till the start of sprint week and act like you do not know where to go, when your agenda is to bash usac!!
