The last POWRi race that I attended last year was at US 36 which was the last race of Midget Money week. Only 22 cars. Several cars there that normally do not run with POWRi. My numbers may be off, but I counted 7 cars that are normal USAC cars.

WINNER: Kyle Larson

The USAC race last spring at Dodge City drew 35 cars for a two day show with many POWRi drivers in attendance. The Valley race last spring had 31 cars but several of them were local to the KC area. The Lucas Oil race only had 25 cars.

Regardless of which series you support or which series you think is the future of the sport having them go head to head in the Kansas/Missouri market is a bad idea.
