    It's not my opinion mikey, it's the opinion of a well respected track official from a late model track. Sorry, and no offense, but I'll go with his opinion, not yours.

    I was there, too. Been to every midget show but 1 they've ever had indoors at Du Quoin. You must be CO sensitive 'cause you're one of the first I've heard complain. Plus, the Perry County health department doesn't monitor the levels inside the SIC. I'll bet they'll be monitoring them in the dome and they most likely will shut down the racing until levels get back to their parameters. That's what they did at Indy. The fumes were not all that noticeable at Indy and they still stopped the racing.

    Little midget race? LOLOL!! Right. It's just a USAC National show. There's another "little" midget race a month after Du Quoin. It only draws 340 cars and sells out 15,000 seats all 5 nights and is broadcast live on national TV. You might have heard of it. LOL!

    I'll be going to Du Quoin no matter what happens Friday night. There are very few USAC National midget or sprint shows in Illinois and I want to support the ones that are run here. I can, and do, see late models race every week from April to mid September and for the most part only have to drive less than an hour to do so. There is absolutely nothing special about a late model show that can't be matched or surpassed by racing of another genre' on any given night. The difference is I'm open minded enough to understand and appreciate that fact, and you aren't. I like and support all of it when I can.

    Hey mikey, you and litey gonna' hook up at St. Louis? You two seem to be kindred spirits of sorts. Ya'll should get along famously! LOL!!

                        My, my!! We're very touchy, aren't we. LOL!! You tunnel vision late model geeks get very touchy and defensive, don't ya'!! LOL!! Inferiority complex, or what? LOLOL!!

                        Only free tickets are to the Friday late model deal. If not for that we wouldn't be going to St. Louis at all.

                        When you're done pouting, dry your eyes and point out anything that I've said that isn't true or distinctly possible.

The fact there are going to be 250 mortifieds horrifies me.

                                110 modifieds are going home after two qualifying sessions...

                                Does anyone read anything anymore?

                                That leaves 40 to run non qualifiers on Thursday and narrows it down to 100-104 for fri/sat depending if the top two in each non-qual decide to do the alphabet soup.

                                The guys who spin out 3-4times in the feature are not going to be in that top 100-104. I'm going fri/sat staying in some ole gals apartment through airbnb for $50 bucks a night. 20 bars between our place and the venue, gotta hit them all!
