So, after some early research, it would appear that this is the same company that put on the IndyIndoors race. If you look at the contact information on both web sites, they both have the same PO Box in Charlotte, NC.
I am glad to see that they learned their lesson and will be building a track in the venue instead of spreading dirt on the floor. Even though the building is a lot bigger, I am still concerned that the bigger cars will be putting out much more fumes. I can see the air quality still being an issue. Also, interesting that they decided to put modifieds on the schedule. It would seem that this show would not need a supporting class. |

I will also give them credit for having a really good promotional video on their web site. It was really good.

The event is NOT by invitation only. The more the merrier.

Just posted that almost verbatim on Twitter. I love the location and timing of this event as well.
Just before Christmas, not much of anything going on. St. Louis is a centralized location and not a huge hall for fans to make it even from most parts of Indiana. Should draw a lot of fans from Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and obviously Missouri...hot beds for late model fans. Only thing that concerns me as of right now would be the size of the track. 1/5 mi. for late models? Don't know about that but I'm open minded for someone trying something new. |

Would be cool if they did it 2 weekends in a row. Late Models & Modifieds one weekend and Sprint and Midgets the next weekend.
