I attended Bloomington Friday night for the first visit of All Star sprints in a long time. First thanks for everyone who participated in the rock party (rock pick up) earlier in the week, thank you!
Hadn’t seen the Bloomington track like that ever. It was so tacky they were throwing ALOT clay into the grandstands through all 3 features. They tried running the top in to make it wider but to no avail. It was awfully narrow. Yet somehow Tye Mihocko started 16th and finished 4th in the non wing feature.
All 3 features this night, 410 wings 410 non wing and lightning sprints all had the leader succumb to a flat RR tire. I don’t know what the answer is for the rock situation. It likely won’t be an easy fix. But I hope they’ll figure it out.

It'll take three or four rock party's till one rock part after. Next grade up and down. till. Rock party, Again, Rock party.

And probably two in spring after they float do too wet condition hydro floation. Ground water creek rising and lowering in the ground water.


That or cut two feet off of it. Let it dry out and by loader run it all thru shaker screens

Alot of talk in regards to change in configuration. Awfully hard to tell any difference if there is nothing worked in outside.
