"IMPORTANT - Due to a lack of participants the Honest Abe Roofing Maverick Wing Sprint car race at the Terre Haute Action track is cancelled, Modifieds will be added to the October 6 USAC Silver Crown race."
Sad. Maybe with spiker not at bloomington he will run Friday or Saturday nights at THAT. The track has so much potential. You can't make much money on a wing series and don't know who is going to show up. Get am entry list and promote it the week of the race. I live 25 miles away but did not go due to thinking it was going to be like the spring race.

The wings can do well, but you really have to look at schedules. Not many teams are going to head from Learnerville to THAT. Expecially when you just ran a double header and are headed to Eldora for another double header.

I'm just glad they made the call when they did. We were only an hour into our drive there so we didn't make it all the way there to find out it was cancelled. It will be tough drawing crowds and car counts in the future when you're uncertain if they will run or not.

Be nice to people on the way up. You might need them on the way down. Jimmy Durante
Terre Haute had a good promoter and the fair board kicked him out. How's that worked out since?
If it isn't the fair board alone that will destroy the Action Track, racers will drive in the final nail. Sprint cars were born, bred and built to be raced on half miles, not micro sprint tracks.
