this deal is much bigger then the kk. i dont think dave r. added the sprints to the show. the way i understand it, the promoter of the DTWC added the sprints. not 100% on that though.

The only thing that bothers me about it is the 10pm schedualed start time of a hundred lap feature. Do the Sprints run before that? Not that Id plan on leaving but I do work weekends. I had planned on switching a weekday for sat and still making work sunday.

I think its great the track gets a big show post season. Honestly tracks are making 0 money on regular shows anymore unless their heavily sponsored. Great news for Bozo!

Chuck, who kinda has a problem with someone bitchin about a race being held when there is normally 0, Nadda, Nothing going on by that time of year cept a race 180 miles away that hasn't been drawing a huge count anyway

Hope you're right on that, I'd hate to think that DR would deliberately schedule this on a weekend that literally has 2-3 weeks on either side of it with nothing going on, non-wing wise.

You're right, Chuck. The Klash drew somewhere around 250 cars in 2007 and just shy of 300 last season. I wouldn't call that a "huge count" at all.

Just so everyone knows the third weekend of October has been the traditional date for the DTWC since 1981. Lawrenceburg did not schedule it on purpose, its just tradition.

Well damn. Guess it's just one of those unfortunate things, then.
