Think most of the top USAC guys have experience at Granite from the Gold Crown days. The first couple of Gold Crown years they ran non-wing sprints also. I know Windom took a nasty ride in a sprint during one of those sprint shows.

Top USAC guys that I know of that have ran at I-55 are Bacon, Darland, and Courtney. Ballou may have ran an Outlaw show there but can't remember correctly.

Yep that's right. Last year was the first time Pevely was scheduled. Makes so much more sense to do the 2-day weekend. Hopefully it can thrive, survive, and be a yearly fixture on the USAC sprint calendar.

I would say some have experience, but not most.

I guess we can add Seavey to that list that has experience at I-55 but I guess he'll be in the midget at Belle-Clair. I think I saw Briscoe would be there too? Wish one of the two would be in the 5 car.
