If local tracks are using this platform to promote their upcoming events, they could at least follow through with results!

Heck, we don't even get USAC results on here anymore...There was a race at THAT on Sunday, right?

The reason we dont get USAC results is that Bill had wriiten a script to pull the results from the USAC site. When USAC changed their website the script quit working and no one knows how to fix it right now.

I think that most tracks are content that people can get results from Race Pass.

USAC results from last night were in my inbox at 6:27 Indiana time this morning. I haven't been a member for a few years, but am obviously still on the email list. I'm betting that it wouldn't be hard to get on.

But I agree with the sentiment, if you advertise a race here you should also post the results here. I'd be happy with just a finishing order with starting position in parenthesis. It doesn't have to be a novel.

Maybe these folks will fix it:

Here is an example from Bill W, on another national midget league -

https://www.hoseheadforums.com/forum...hreadID=121441

I do understand wanting people to go to the main site, but I'm afraid this site will go the way of midget madness if there is less traffic on here. Thankfully, someone started a topic on Sunday's race, but sometimes, it's like a race didn't even happen (on here anyway). And there are good write-ups pre-race (lot of stats, etc.), which were also neat to see on here...

Left click, copy and paste...

My research is there is more to it (than the script deal).

I gather if we want to see more instant results and conversations on the races, we may have to turn to Mark Z's site. I have preferred this forum.
