If it makes you feel better the Labor Day event is the only time IT cars will get to race at HPT next year. The other event is a Double Natioal (first weekend in May).
i've ran Gateway twice, and HPT maybe eight weekends and haven't had contact with a wall either. but i'd much rather not run at these types of places if i can avoid it. if i didn't run HPT even once in 2009 i wouldn't be much disappointed.
