They add just about enough rules for anyone wanting to race small midget size race cars on the cheap to do so, and enjoy themselves in the process.

I hope they do well, Wish they weren't so far away from us.

IMRA rules are nearly identical to Montpelier Midget series rules, with just a few minor differences. Looks like their focus is western Illinois/eastern Iowa. STORM, which ran at AVCOM Park last year seemed to take the same approach; I haven't seen any updates to thier site (
http://www.stormracingseries.com/index.htm) since October. Does anoyone know if they will be running there next year? If a couple of tracks in central/eastern IL and central/western IN adopted similar rules you could almost make a nice little circuit out of that...
