Adding excitement or fixing the finish, green to checkered is what the fans are looking for. No thanks.

Not much for change, tradition means very little anymore. J.M.O.

I don't know why anyone is surprised. If there is a way to screw something up USAC will find it.

D O has the right answer it has been nice to see the old silver crown racing highlights with the narrow tires and watch them go into the corner's two and three wide.They hardly do any track prep anymore it is usually dry slick hot lapping on the miles.The best silver crown racing to watch was at Terre Haute because with the heavy full load they always pushed the cushion to the wall made for some real racing there and now it is was on this years schedule and now gone.This new rule sucks big time along with adding the freaking modifieds to the show,he will probably run there feature at the 51 lap break.If they want to make it more interesting try the double file on the restarts first and do some dam track prep for a change.Bigger question is if the promoter came up with this idea who was the dipchit in the usac office that okayed it????

The USAC schedule still shows the Action Track with a Silver Crown date. Spridge also commented on here a while back to my question, that it was a done deal, that they would be back at Terre Haute. My comment then was maybe someone should inform Mike King.

I remember reading that on here to and especially the last line about Mike King,I hope the date is still on for this year I guess time will answer our question about this race.

Ok try this stop the race and do track prep then restart basically sounds to me like it is 2 50 lap races. But if they want to stop it then do some track prep during the break.

I vote no for a stop. If a driver wins by a straight, then so be it. He earned it. I hate all these people that think they have to "fake" racing. Let the racing play out....not every finish is going to be side by side. A fan doesn't walk away pissed because EVERY race wasn't a classic. I agree with the comment about track prep. I'd try that first before this stunt. I hope they listen to the real fans that support it every week and not try and get the "new" fans that everybody seems to search for all the time.

More excitement for the fans? Did they bother to ask the silver crown fans what they thought? It is a unique racing format and car combination that stands out from the rest. Instead of trying to make it fit the template of other races, celebrate and emphasize the differences. On a well prepared surface, the silver crown cars put on a heck of a show. I've seen them at DuQuoin and THAT, and loved every minute of it.

The best race that I have seen there, was when it rained right before practice started (maybe 2001 or 2002). The track was heavy, and they had the cushion right up against the wall. That was a exciting race.

My vote, water the track so they can race and not run the bottom all night.

Don't red flag it.
