This is the worst I've ever seen Bloomington speedway no water dry and dusty slick can't ever remember this track looking like that I bet the first heat winner didn't get over 60 on the straight a way one week it was muddy and rutts and now it looks look paragon heat races hope they get it to gather down here

The "press release" on their website indicates the Miles family will remain involved to ensure a smooth transition. Do you think the transition is over and the new bunch are on their own? We are not there tonight but have been a couple of times this season and the track does not seem to be very racy

Al, I talked with Mike the last time I was there and he said that was his first night of retirement ,so I would guess that he is no longer in an advisory capacity.

Strange how I heard all this bickering about a dry one groove race track last year as well. And the year before that. And the year before that. I love Bloomington when it's two grooves...who doesn't. But maybe it just has some bad nights. I recall, i think casey shuman said it, that bloomington has always been a race to get to the tires. (tires being the bottom) If he said ALWAYS...doesnt that mean mike miles had a few nights with one lane racing?? Im just saying. Accept it and enjoy the sport we love. There's always next week! Good luck to the drivers tonight!!
