The racing is 2nd to none,but I didnt stick around after the red on the 29th lap,cause I would have been in the parking lot till 2am,and I gotta go to work in a few hours.
Huh? You're kidding, right? Let's make sure we're talking about the same Kokomo: The place where the sprint feature is over by 9:30 just about every week, right? I can't believe anyone would make this statement.
Tonight wasn't an early night, but I've sure been at many races that went later and dragged on more. And the "Kokomo" portion of the show was very fast: Features only for the two classes of stock cars, one of which went green-to-checkered.
If you're looking for someone to blame, how about USAC and their open red? Or USAC and their extremely slow Toyota push trucks?
Oh, and I personally wasn't in the lot until 2 a.m. If you are patient, wait 10 minutes before going to your car, and then exit out of the north exit, there are no troubles.
