Never have ripped on the World. Merely said the times that I've attended it (23 to be exact) there were some that were less than stellar in entertainment value. No ones fault, not a rip on the World, it happens with every race if they run them long enough. Sometimes the partying and the hype outdistance the race itself in excitement. Happens all the time. And I pointed out some of the races that have been in existence longer. Once again, not a rip, just facts.
Since you tell out and out lies then I'm thinkin' you're running for office. Port-a-potty inspector at the taste of chitcago maybe? LOL!!

I'm not sure it's an answerable question. I have only been to a hand full of Worlds and a few Dreams. I loved it, but I'm not sure what exactly makes it such a spectacle (but it is). The racing in the years I went was not terribly good. It wasn't bad, but nothing spectacular, but you loved being there. It was the biggest track I'd ever been to. I know it's just a half mile, but it seems huge, due I'm sure to the super short straights and big sweeping turns. I think it goes back to Earl partly. It's big because Earl told everybody it was. He put a great name on it, and people just started flocking to it.
I do think that as crazy as it sounds the T-shirts helped. I can remember being a kid, before I'd ever been to many big races at all. You'd see someone wearing a "World 100" shirt and when they'd be sitting in front of me, I'd read names like Larry Moore, Jeff Purvis, Donnie Moran, Billy Moyer, Scott Bloomquist......and I remember thinking Wow....All those guys have won there.

And for whatever reason, the best usually rises up. I know he's not there this year, so nobody has to say "he wont do it this year", but Bloomquist has 18 top 5 fnishes in the World. That's double anyone else.
And starting in 1988, Bloomquist, Moyer and Moran won 12 out of 14!!!!!
