I would think these recent late cancellation habits by some promoters may unfortunately affect the decisions of some race teams on where they may chance traveling to for future events. Maybe not?

What channel was it on? NHRA.com and my other TV sources aren't showing that there was any live coverage. I'm kinda surprised what I am seeing doesn't have anything slated to air til Sunday...

There may be three tracks in the state making $$
But keep on bashing They'll lose too. it's not like Bloomington hasn't already shut down twice in the last ten years.

I don't share info unless given permission to do so. However it's kinda obvious that when there used to sometimes be three fri night tracks. Four Sat night tracks and one or two sunday night tracks that the situation is not good. And some of those are now closed or in various stages.
And one promoter is trying to keep three running off of only one that's got a consistent regular successful program. I got three tracks, equal distance in time for me. None of them are racing this weekend. And that's without weather as a issue, They didn't schedule anything. WHY?
