18 cars, with 3-4 people per car in pits and 300 people in stands to watch sprints specifically is what it takes to break even on a very modest $800 to win sprint purse...thst is if u can get a total of about another 80 cars in other 4 classes and hope like no other another 350 people show up in grandstands. I'm not against sprint cars. I love them and a lot of my friends run them...Cottle, Stockon, Maddox, Short, Cockrum..etc but if, as promoters ,we don't watch our financial facts closely, we will be just another closed race track.

I understand and do wish you the best of luck. Hope it works and the track stays open.

Looking for contact info for someone at Bloomington Speedway. I have left messages but no call back. Does anyone have alternate contact #?

Are you going to get the catch fence fixed? On my last visit this was scary and dangerous. I would not even think about coming back unless this was fixed.

New catch fence in 1-2, all damaged catch fence repaired in 3-4, entire back stretch will be a solid billboard extending above the wall.

Kris is usually very good about returning calls. Maybe he is taking a few days off during the holiday season.

Bloomington Speedway is also on Facebook.
