Great track finally got to see it last season when we had a race there with the lightning sprints. Hope we get to race there again soon Best of luck and its nice to see the interaction already starting on here with the promoter.

You might contact bloomington speedway and I'm sure they have a good idea of the number of cars they are expecting in the beginning. There is a lot of buzz about this series. In my opinion I think it is going to blow up in Indiana and il. Everywhere it has started it has done nothing but grow.

Yes the weekly sprint car count was low but do you think that pro late models will draw more cars

Tri City Speedway gets 18-26 weekly, every Friday ,approx an hour away. We have had numerous calls from drivers in that area looking for a race track to run on Saturdays as well as 3-5 new to the division within a 70 mile radius. We did a lot of research before making this decision. Another thing to note...a pro late model purse is far less than sprint cars. In actuality it is less than the UMP Modified class. We have to look at what is in our region and nonwing sprints are primarily in Indiana. It is not often you will get 18-20 cars to drive by 2-3 other tracks paying more money to come race. As we have said...there will be 6-8 races for the non wing guys in 2015 as well as a couple of winged shows.
