Thanks for the info Casey! Many of us will be supporting this event wherever you reschedule it. I stated on the Cummins post that I feel you should schedule the event on a track to highlight your series regulars. Good luck with you as you solidify the event.

I agree the stated reason for cancelling lacks credibility, however, the problem I see is that we have too many venues basically vying for the same participants and fans. We just don't seem to realized this alphabet soup of organizations and track promoters scheduling similar events against one another can have long term negative consequences.

But to also be fair, if you worried about not scheduling on top of other similar races, you would probably not actually have many races. The closest race was 160 miles away in another state.
This race was scheduled last year on this weekend specifically because there was very little going on at other places. This year there were two other races scheduled on the same night.

The opening in the wall had absolutely nothing to do with Hodnett's death. His crash was no where near an opening. It's on you tube see for yourself.

Not sure why you are talking about the crash here on this thread, but if you searched YouTube and watched the video labeled his crash, that was a video from Williams Grove earlier this year not the crash from BAPS, which I'm assuming will never be shown. Anyway back to the Fairbury debate.

I assume this post is in regards to the questions I posted last night. Ken Dobson from MOWA responded to my question. The track at Fairbury was not questioned by the sanctioning bodies.
