Econo Modified

Glen, this is just my opinion, so let me try to explain it. I grew up doing just no break out racing, so everyone knows where I'm coming from. When it was going, they averaged 1,000 spectators a night. And have had as many as 1,500. I ran at Eddyville in the 70's. They had standing room only, and 64 car fields in SS, and Top Street, (Comp) and turned away 86 cars the first time I entered. I was one. I did not qualify. The bump was .34 under. I went back when they started bracket racing. About 30 spectators. That's what we're missing, and I think it is over. I am quitting this year. Last year was my, and Steve Thompson's last. This just piqued my interest enough to stick around. Do I know it will work? No! Do I hope someone higher up sees the opportunity? Yes! Do I think they will? No! But it is fun to dream.
