    $30 seems like a lot for a $5k show imo

      Do you want tracks to stay open or not? The price is going to have to go up because, there is just not the fan base there once was. Maybe now some will feel what some drivers and owners are feeling that the cost of racing keeps going up.

        Maybe the fan base is smaller because the prices went up? The problem with your theory is that there will always be another rich kid to fill the gap when drivers and owners get out of the sport but when fans quit going cuz of rising ticket prices they will not be replaced.

          Fan base has been in decline way before prices have started going up. I will say it's a double edge sword for tracks to get to a happy medium. No I'm not a believer in more rich kids filling the seats. More and more are going to get out of the sport because of cost. Its already happening.

                Very good advice. We had never been in a suite before last years' Thaw Brawl and someone had the presence of mind to bring a fan and a small space heater. Without the fan we'd have had to go outside due to the windows fogging over.

                  I don't always used driver websites as you just stated. A lot of times their not updated. These came from Izzo, AELMT, & a few strait the drivers them selves. I asked if they could confirm any on twitter and facebook. Rich Bell lives right of the street from LaSalle in Sheffield, IL & Scott Schmitt lives about 10 feet away in Tonica, IL.

                    Think I saw where it cost 25 for Friday, maybe I looked at it wrong though. We need to support dirt track racing when possible. Just my opinion. Well I see now on the new article that it is 30 for Friday so I stand corrected. We still need to try and support our local tracks though as much as we can.

                      That was a typo. It's corrected.
                      Races at LaSalle have always been good. Yes sometimes it's rough. Like most tracks you get that from time to time; But I've seen a lot of great races there. It wouldn't surprise me to see a large field of cars in all four classes if the weather forecast is good for both days.
