The last five nights of racing have been awesome.
Two nights at Atomic. Port Royal. Fremont. Grandview.
How does it get better?
I've had five great days at work knowing when I get home, I get to eat a steak and watch a bad ass sprint car race.
Tomorrow is my Saturday, so I get to work on my car. Life is good right now!

Finally somebody is getting it on here. More big time sprint car racing equals more fun.

I agree several different winners good purses and some of HL and WOO are showing support . Stll going to be 10/12 cars from either group will continue to pocket more money but the next 12 will at least make the feature and get a check.50 car fields leave 25 with small check and similar traveling and maintainence costs. Not cheap sport!

Great week of racing. I was able to make the 2 atomic shows, the Weilert and Fremont Monday. Biggest things I noticed was the crowds were great, the racing was great and the fast guys are fast everywhere they go. Extreme midgets put on great shows as well as the support class at atomic they added to the events for sure. The biggest benefit of the split is for the local teams, many guys got to make dashes and the A mains and get that 4 digit payday to make the A that wouldn't have if ALL the big teams from HL and WoO were present and to me that's a good thing.

Not trying to start a WoO/ HL debate, but it seems that the last couple of weeks, HL has had better fields
Maybe its cause they're racing close to Pa. & Ohio?

WoO pooped their proverbial pants when they took the Memorial Day weekend from PA to Charlotte and opened the door for Port and The Weikert.
No offense to Atomic but I think they had 28 cars on Friday night, The Grove woulda had 50.

This is very true. They killed a golden goose whith that deal. All for a one night show down there and then run back up to Lawrenceburg on Monday.

I'm guess this is about dirt racing, but I will add the Indy 500 and the Little 500 at Anderson. Both good races but on the tar.
But you are correct - great weekend for racing all around.

Daily racing and the news coming in so fast there's no time to argue between races. That's a good thing.

just putting my two cents in
started with USAC at Terra haute then two night at circle city bull ring...the last lap of the first day at circle city ..five cars within 10 feet of each other. The next night Logan Sevey was in another Zip code. Then to finish my wonderful two weeks high limit at Lawrenceburg....wow Kyle Larson didn't disappoint the crowd there..it was like the rest of the field was running midgets against him..there wasn't one car that had a chance at beating him..
great racing and..spending time with my brothers
Can't ask for more....thats what life is all about
