Only 1 USAC National Midget event in the State of Illinois throughout that whole schedule. What is it about this friggin' state that can't support the top levels of dirt open wheel racing except for the USAC Silver Crown division.

Fairbury is on the schedule 3 times but it dam sure ain't FALS. Ugh!! Fairbury, Nebraska, which is at the least a 650 mile pull for most teams, can get 3, count 'em 3, USAC National Midget Shows but Fairbury, Illinois, which is just a short pull for a lot of the USAC teams, can't get a sniff.

I reckon those of us who do not suffer from DLM tunnel vision and enjoy dirt open wheel racing should resign ourselves to the fact that the pizza deliver cars are the only division that will draw a profitable crowd at FALS and stop dreaming of the day USAC comes across the Illinois/Indiana border!
