So why all of sudden is everybody scheduling against the kiss races? First it was Kokomo a few years ago scheduling a 2000 to win race against tri state kiss race. Now it's putnamville doing it to paragon this crap needs to end! It's called king of Indiana sprints all the teams need to be at one track for these races. If this continues to happen they might as well change the name of the series. Just my two cents worth. I know everybody has to try to get cars but you think for this series people could work together. I remember my first time to paragon for a kiss race they had 70 something cars that's the way it should be every year for these races granted it won't happen but at least give it the chance to happen. I know you can pay all the money in the world and still only get 40 cars. I'm just tired of everybody scheduling against kiss.there are a few promoters out there that work with others and for that I tip my hat to you guys thank you! Everybody have a great and safe weekend!

I was always under the impression that a track that had a KISS race would not run against one,guess I was wrong......but that's the way it should be !!!

Cept three of the five tracks are sat night tracks. You should only have to take off one, Same as GC and Bloominton.

The agreement not to race against each other is between KISS tracks. LPS isn't part of it.

Burg,TSS & Paragon are Saturday races. LPS was offered a Thursday race but couldn't race sprints the other 3 Saturday nights.

It doesn't take a genius businessman to figure out its a stupid decision to give up 3 premium saturday night races to gain 1 thursday night.

I doubt you will find very many drivers or car owners complaining about any track paying a "little" more.

It must be hard to follow updates from that many places. I fully plan on pulling the double dip after paragon. If I catch all the features great. But I'm never going to complain about too many tracks running. If you're worried about car counts go to Florence for the Lucas oil race should be quite a few there

Bill Gardner's statment about LPS not allowed to run Sprints 3 saturday's against KISS is not true I was at that meeting and dont recall Bill Gardner being there, the only thing requested of another track is not to run a big Sprint money show against KISS, this is the true fact. Keith Ford

Thank you for the invitation to join your next meeting.

It's good to know LPS will have a "Saturday" race next year.
