There is no doubt that through the years, the Midgets (killer Bees), have put on one heck of a show there, and the past winners reads like a who's who in the top ranks of motor sports history.
I especially like to point out to my NASCAR friends that they run faster than Jeff Gorden out there.
Anyone remember what fast time was last year? About 144 I think.

Cant wait till Thursday !! Without a doubt the Midgets put on the best show that PIR has all year. And they've gotten rid of those UGLY & SLOW Silver Crown cars and are back to the traditional cars... Thank you USAC !!!

I certainly agree about the Champ Cars, but why do they have to have in on a Thursday night! Yes I know, NASCAR. If it was a weekend race, I'm sure more real open wheel fans would be able to make the show.

I was hoping a local would get a ride with someone. Cant wait for the best race of the whole weekend. I remember watching the lead change between 6 different drivers before they completed a lap in past midget races. Your sure right, people think sunday is where the the best racing is. |

That part was to know one in particular, but now that you mention it, I was looking up.
