On this anniversary of Kent State I wonder about those on the front line and if a scenario in the future could see another Kent State. “...this summer I hear the drumming...., tin soldiers...Four dead in Ohio....”

Yes, how times have changed. And who in their right mind would have guessed that in 2020 the protesters would be the ones carrying the rifles (Lansing, Mich.). Truly sad. I apologize for being off topic.

Doesn’t sound promising for June and perhaps even July Divisional races.

Well they didn't announce a plan they just announced the postponements. No real plan as to when and what the actual remaining season will become. No schedule for the divisionals until the national schedule is formulated. Bummer. I can only imagine what Dan Fletcher has to say about this bit of news.

With everything in the country up in the air, I don't know that the ability to do any concrete planning even exists. They only know what they definitely CANNOT do at this point.

One would think it would be much easier to get the divisional races going ahead of the nationals. You could just as well run them with no spectators they really don't draw many any way. Limit each car to 3 or 4 people. require mask for every one space out the pits some. and away you go shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Time runs and first round Friday.

With Denver and Sonoma off the schedule hard to believe Seattle National will happen. On FB some of the National Event tracks are posting their new dates, Gainesville in Sept for instance, and yep, it’s still hot in Florida then but they always draw a huge crowd.
