If it does not, we will be headed to DuQuoin on Saturday. Wonder if they will let me make laps in the modified around the track?
      They might let ya' do a few hot laps!

      If it was any other race but Du Quoin I'd say the deal in St. Louie would hurt the crowd but given the interest that past few year I don't think it'll hurt DQ a bit. They have a solidly established following at DQ at this point and everybody that has ever been there knows they're gonna' see a very good show.

        WWMF, ill make it a double for the inconvenience. CIRF, I don't think it will hurt the crowd either. Not enough to hinder the event anyway. Although there is a VERY strong contingent of the full body car fans at the event. Either way the event will naturally go off without a hitch. Hopefully they schedule it the week before the PRI show. It may not be on the traditional weekend but for the sake of working together if it could be done it may not hurt. Also, I apologize for not having spaces when addressing everyone or changing subjects. It shows up when I am typing it but when I reply it does not...?

          I wouldn't take issue with what you're saying about the VERY big dirt late model fandom at DQ. But I never got the sense that there were all that many DLM fans there. There have always been a bunch of open wheel dirt fans from Indiana at DQ. A couple of buddies from central Kansas make the December show every year and they wouldn't walk across the street to go to a DLM show if the tickets were free. Like I said, I sure wouldn't dispute what you're saying but I never really got that feeling from the many conversations we've had in the grandstands over the years.

            That's how I feel about sprints.

                Yes, I'm sure you do too. There isn't no one else that I can remember over the years that confused so many people, and was still right.

                    Sprints aren't part of the subject here, but carry on. LOL!


                    There is absolutely no accounting for taste, that's for sure. Either way.

                    I do know this much for sure, tunnel vision is one sure way to deprive ones self of some very good racin'. When it comes to racing we've never had tunnel vision and never will.

                    Small minded is the term that most often applies. That may be the case here.

                      I don't get it the racing season is fixing to start there will be 100s of races run and everybody is all excited about an indoor race in the middle of December.there are plenty of race tracks for sale and lease why go to all the trouble to run indoors I just don't get it I guess I'm missing something maybe they think it will be another chili bowl big difference between a midget and a late model.
