This is the 3rd year in a row that the admission for this show has been in that range...and the crowds have been good for each of the 3 shows...so it's one of those "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" things.
I too hope they are using the money for the rumoured improvements.
Tom-kudos on your hard work at Ohsweken this season. Last night you must have wished you were two places at one time with Ryan winning the Auto Value race at Berlin. The Lair Jet seemed off the pace Friday night.
Haha...Ryan's probably happy I wasn't there...I've been doing his PR stuff since something like 2005 and have yet to be on the premises when he wins a race...I've seen him have a few good runs, but more often than not he has an issue when I am there, either mechanical or a crash...When he nearly won the Little 500 this year, I was thinking while he was in the lead and I was keeping tabs on the internet updates that if he won, he would never let me go to another race of his ever again...lol
I was definitely bummed out about the rescheduling of the events, but to be honest, I didn't even think about Berlin one time last night while I was at Ohsweken. 😉
The Lair Jet had engine problems all evening at Delaware, which prompted Dave to stay home from Berlin, unfortunately.
sounds like they could have used the Lair Jet at Berlin-17 supers and only 15 started the feature. 24 MSA supers at Sandusky. Hard to figure out sometimes isn't it as a couple of ISMA guys we saw at Delaware ran the MSA show instead of ISMA Berlin. Guess the Sandusky show was a rain date which really complicated matters.
Well Bobby Haynes blew up on Friday at Delaware and didn't run anywhere Saturday...He would have been an 18th car at Berlin...
As for ISMA guys running Sandusky, there weren't any full time ISMA guys there...Lou Cicconi was driving the #49 that Dave Shullick ran before taking over the Booth #61, and that car is in the fight for the MSA owner's title...Davey Hamilton was originally going to run it on the 13th before the rain cancelled that race...Joe Gosek, Bob Magner, Otto Sitterly, Greg Furlong, Jason Spaulding, Steve Gioia III, and Craig Rayvals were part of the MSA/Oswego Challenge series...not sure how many, if any, of those guys would have gone to Berlin, or even Delaware, if they didn't have the Sandusky race to run.
