I am really excited to see such a strong schedule for the Badger Midgets this year. I am especially excited for the Farley, Iowa race considering I am from Iowa. Not sure if this matters to anyone here, but that Sept 2nd date is Friday night of the Yankee Dirt Classic in Farley which is a big time Late Model event.

Will BMARA run the "1/2" mile or the little track?
