Tim,

About the time you're unfolding your lawn chair and getting ready to sit down on the hillside, all you have to do is look at the high banks and the bright red clay and you've already gotten your money's worth. Mike, Brad, Pat, Chuck and everybody else there run their show in a way that really makes a race fan feel like a guest of theirs. And, IMO, Bloomington Speedway is more pleasing to the eyes than any other track.

Yes, I just got my subscription renewal notice a couple of weeks ago. It is well worth the price.

Also a great read in this issue of SC&M is the Jeff Swindell column. Jeff offers some very interesting opinions on the future of sprint car racing, both winged and traditional.:thumb:

Like this interesting opinion.

"410 vs 360: "410 cubic inch sprint cars will, and should be, a thing of the past. After putting in two separate seasons (2003 & 2007) of racing the 360 motors with less expensive ASCS heads and steel blocks, I fully understand why track after track seem to be saying so long to local 410 cars."
