Lucas Oil Raceway (IRP) renovations include DIRT RACING.
 

If they do a 2 Day WoO Show in the future, I pray that they lay out a track with more room than Nashville!!

They’d be better off trying to work with what they’ve got and bring Thursday night thunder! I used to go to that all the time and place was packed and they didn’t charge for parking either! Don’t see the need to split the crowds by running up against your local dirt tracks either.

ok unleash the attack dogs!!!

Thursday Night Thunder won't Work anymore!!
Not enough Pavement Sprint Cars & Midgets left to run that often. I miss Thursday Night Thunder, too! But it won't work unfortunately.

There are plenty of pavement sprints available. If a Thursday
Night thunder was announced for March you could have 30 there easily. We have 4 competitive Beast cars sitting in our shop now, 2 need fuel and oil, 2 need re-assembly. The cars didn’t evaporate when USAC mistakenly dropped pavement during the recession, they’re all still out there and the chassis’ stay good for many seasons of racing unlike our dirt cars.

I think it could work if it was kept economical. Before pavement midgets totally died out the racing was great but the cost was allowed to spiral out of control. Not just the engines, although they were the big problem, but the shocks, light weight bits, tires, etc...

The only way I could imagine any form of pavement midgets coming back would be via a tightly controlled, economical, rules package. Not a focus midget redo, but something around 280-300hp and reliable with simple shock rules and no carbon fiber or titanium. Then slap on some tire rules that only allow two sets per race day or something. Then get a good promoting organization to hold to the rules.

Leave the pavement sprints wide open though, those things are badass and just need to be allowed to keep growing. Just get one good organization to run it and not split the car counts

Just my two cents...

Baylands, I should've rephrased what I said. There are plenty of Pavement Non-Wing Sprints, but let's see how the Race with Must See goes in 2020. I see a Winged show in May, but thought sure everyone was talking about a Non-Wing show this year??Don't see it on their website. Maybe I'm dreaming, lol.
