    Unbelievable how insignificant that event has become in a short time. If the goal was to kill it they have succeeded.

        And on a weekend where Peoria has a &5k to win that will pull some of the central Illinois guys. Lates should pay at least 5k or just kill it.

          They Get what they ask for..... Race should be more centrally located in the main area where UMP cars and team are located. Any track hosting this event if done right should have a large pit area and be better equip to hold a race of this magnitude for the UMP drivers. Not saying I-55 can't hold the race; but come on at least promote the event and pay better. I never saw one thing mentioned about the show. Format, payout, location, & prices..... the whole deal is terrible. It's the UMP NATIONALS".... It should pay better, there should be more racing, more incentive to go, and it should move from track to track every year. Give every track and area a chance to run the "NATIONALS". It should be a special race, and they should put some effort into making it special.... Look at Mod Mania for instance! Always a great turnout. The whole thing is a joke anymore and is a shell of it's former self as a racing event.....

            Plus they let people practice on Thursday night so unless you want to be at a disadvantage it’s essentially a three day show for that pay. No thanks

                Next weekend’s race at Fairbury should be the UMP Nationals. Maybe adjust it to be a little like the former UMP Nationals at Eldora. Qualifying, heat races, and champions races on Saturday, features on Sunday afternoon. Super Late Models, Modifieds, and Crate LM’s.

                    That is very sad. Used to be a heck of an event at Eldora. Terrible what they’ve done to it in a few short years.
                    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                      I'm on racing sites every day. Unless I've seen it and don't remember. Which is totally possible. This is the first I've heard about it.

                            Yeah I didn’t realize they are only running supers Saturday night. I’m still griping about last year. Lol
