Back in the day I played race track promoter at the ‘burg and we were fairly successful. Today I wouldn’t go down that road, to many things have changed - demographics, age of fans, cost of race cars, overhead (insurance, fuel, payroll, lease, maintenance, etc). Unfortunately weekly racing may soon be a thing of the past.

I’m not the promoter, nor will I ever be, but I love fantasy booking race schedules. This is just my opinion about what I would try if it was my business venture. I don’t have the money or the proximity to Lawrenceburg to give this a real shot. I find it interesting that the people who complain about young racers coming in and using daddy’s money to buy a ride are often the same people who say “if you know so much then go buy a race track and do it yourself”. You can bet if I had rich daddy money I would be out buying a race track, so I’m going to ignore reality for just a moment to suggest a schedule like this. 10 events - keeping some of the annual events that appear to have been pretty successful and add in a few new shows. 6 Sprint races and 5 races for each of the 3 local classes - Modifieds, Pure Stocks, and Hornets. 2 shows with winged sprints and 2 with late models, plus Midget Week and Night of Destruction.
Lawrenceburg 2024 April 6 - USAC Sprints (plus Modifieds and Hornets) May 11 - BOSS Sprints (plus Modifieds, Pure Stocks, and Hornets) May 27 Memorial Day - WoO Sprints (plus Pure Stocks) June 8 - USAC Midget Week (plus Sprints) July 6 - Merrill Downey Memorial (Modifieds & Late Models, plus Pure Stocks) July 21 - USAC Sprint Week (plus Modifieds) August 3 - Night of Destruction August 31 Labor Day Weekend - FAST & BOSS Sprints (plus Hornets) September 13 - Ironman Late Model Series (plus Modifieds, Pure Stocks, and Hornets) October 5 - USAC Sprints Fall Nationals (plus Pure Stocks and Hornets) |

That deal is like WoO. Start at a Hundred Grand and add to it to even get the date. It's just not as simple anymore as saying, Here's the date. It pays umpteen thou and you'll have a big count and crowd. Everyone that has dates that work has em already. |
Love to see High Limit there sometime.
