I have chatted with Jeff a couple times = He is a proponent of
Sportsman racing. However: 1/ It is a beautiful but expensive track to operate and difficult for a bracket program to pay the overhead. 2/ The ownership has nearly no interest at all in Sportsman racing and would be happy to see it's demise. My observation: Jeff does absolutely all he can in a very difficult situation for the Sportsman Racing at LVMS. That is all I better say right now = But it is a serious problem at this point.

Understood.....Just venting I guess. Was really anxious this year about Div. 7. Wild Horse and Tucson cancelling, and Vegas up in the air, this years travel plans have changed quite a bit. Lots and Lots of extra Miles to get 8 races. And like you, don't feel good about Div. 7 opportunities going forward.
Fingers crossed for rest of year

It's still baffles me that LVMS has to go by state guidlines but casino's get to be regulated by the gaming commision. I get the differences but when I was there last October for the double, my hotel was packed. People everywhere.

Gaming is a major financial tax support and employer in our State! Racing is not either one! I am not defending the Situation = Just explaining it!

Well, I absolutely hate the term, "the new normal". But, ones on its way. Hopefully the post covid era offers great places to race again. I regard those days of racing just about whenever or where-ever I wanted, a luxury. "Back in the Day" was less than a year ago.
