	Well I guess I missed the memo on this one. Night race at Chicagoland on Saturday next weekend for the Cup guys? I never even knew that was going to happen. That should be fun.

	I knew about it, but I completely forgot until after tonight's race. Let's see if the night race helps make Chicago a better race to watch. At this point I'll have to say no. It's just a boring track.

	Martinsville would be great, There was talk a couple of years ago about putting up lights and expanding the seating after they moved the Train track from right behind the track. As for Dega, I don't know that would be a lot of lights especially to light the top of the track. the angle of the lights might blind the drivers down low.

	EA Sports one year with their NASCAR game had an option that when you went to every track, you could race it as if the track had lights. Probably one of the coolest features they added but of course anything that company does right they screw up and they got rid of it the next year. It was cool to race with the lights at any track on that game and I know in '08 when you race at Martinsville with the Whelen Modified Series it's under the lights and that's fun. Even though these tracks all didn't have lights, it was cool to see what it would look like with them.

	If Daytona has lights, then so could 'Dega. It's just a matter of money. Daytona has plenty of events other than the regular Cup and Nationwide races like The
