I was very proud of our BOSS regulars for running very well against the USAC invaders. Our guys get one race a year at Eldora and it's a monumental task running against the guys with many more laps on that track.

If you enjoyed that race, you really need to catch more of our events. That race probably barely cracked the top 5 in exciting main events of our 16 completed events this year.

I know some people question why we run 6 heats with 8 cars as opposed to 5 heats of 10 or as some groups would do, 4 heats of 12. When you time trial, I suppose you have the right to do that and put the lesser experienced or lesser funded teams to the back at the very beginning.

However, we PILL DRAW to save time on save the track. The pill draw is very tough when you draw a bad pill. But by running smaller fields in the heats, it allows the drivers a chance. Two heat winners came from row 4 and one came from row 3. The bottom line is that my belief is that the majority of fans would prefer to see more RACING and less time trials.

Thanks again for everyone's support in 2016 and we encourage everyone to support the non sanctioned, non wing event at Millstream Speedway this Saturday. See you in 2017!

Aaron-I really enjoy the BOSS series and wish you guys could branch out even more into Indiana and the like-don't change the format!! I want to see racing, not qualifications. Six heats didn't bother me at all, nor did the 2 B mains. Your car counts show you are doing something right. Keep it up!!!

I think Aaron is doing it the way he should now. I wouldn't change a thing. Take your shows to the places that normally don't see them, and continue to impress new fans.

I wish they would head out to n.e. PA. I'd love to see a show at PennCan, a cool 1/4 mile track nestled along the Susquehanna river.
Theres also a number of nice tracks here and in NY that would be perfect for Sprintcars.
Nonwinged 600's are getting big around here I'm sure fans would come out to see the real thing. We live in a sprintcar desert, its terrible if you don't like BB mods or the occasional winged crap.
