Just wondering if anyone has any news from the Montpelier Motor Speedway Midget Meeting that took place yesterday?
i.e. - Rules, Possible Weekly Payouts, Racing Rules, Race Format, ect....?

We all see the complaints from people affiliated with midget racing on this board. Purses, costs, tires you name. I'd like to thank Montpelier for sticking their neck waaaaay out there in support of midget racing.
The midget racers now have someone trying to work with them, I hope the midget racers try to work with Montpelier.It would be nice to see something WORK in midget racing in Indiana. |
