I certainly hope this race is a success for all concerned. I have been to Vermilion co. several times and have always seen good racing. I'm sure this ill be no different. I wish we could be there to support it, but have plans to be elsewhere Saturday night. Thanks for your time.

Just be straight with people, john. I talk to hundreds of race fans, track people, drivers and people involved with race teams, every year. Most of them have a few things in common. As a lot, they're technically minded people and as a general rule, they're pretty street smart. You can work your way into being well thought of by them, but you're not going to bs your way there. And portraying yourself as the victim and blaming everyone else isn't going to work, either. It never works. Especially with these kind of people. Until you accept responsibility for your organization failing this year (and it did) and change your approach, all you're going to do is repeat the same outcome. Good luck in your future endeavors.

With that said, i wish steve luck. This is a great track and it's a really nice facility. I was there quite a few times last year and once this year for illinois sprint week. The place is one of the raciest joints around, on most nights.

Korey has been very impressive the last two nights @ Granite City. Jim Spridgeon was saying tonight that we need to see more of him in non-wing races here in Indiana. I totally agree.

I agree, he and the 7x have been a good fit.
