Great show last night. 2 of the 3 heats were won by Locals, Mark Bitner and Mark Smith. Placed was packed, apparently not many board members though.
If you've never seen WINGless racing, should try to make Big Diamond on Friday or Port on Saturday. OR you could was the train of "All Stars" :dontknow: :dontknow:

I saw on another forum that something happened after Coleman Gulick crash that caused the promoter to apologize to the race team for the actions of a couple safety workers. Not sure what happened, but that does not sound very professional.

I think there was around 35-37 midgets . They put on a good show to bad about the last 4 laps not being run due to the curfew , I think Buckwalter would of won he was flying . But the show seemed to take forever last night due to rain delay and the flips in both the midgets and sprints . But overall a good show and the track was in good shape . I'll say this Grandview is a great track for midgets with 3 and 4 wide the whole race .

First time I have seen USAC anywhere...they were awesome to watch!!! Great to see locals take a couple of heats...don't understand why they started so far back in feature after winning heats???
ARDC put on a great show at that track.
OH...and thanks to Jeff The Jello Shot Guy coming out of turn 4 by keeping me entertained during the Red Flag.>> :clap: :thumbleft:
