I would be there for sure - would also love to see a USAC Midget race there - maybe Levi would be interested?

I've done all I can to get a Usac date, fans etc. need to call Usac office and let them know your take on a possible event. thanks Keith

Several people responded that they should limit the support class which will help with parking. This is where I get lost. If the track is going to be near capacity to watch the USAC show, how is limiting the support classes going to help with parking? I understand that limiting classes will help with pit spaces, but it will not impact parking for the grandstand. What am I missing?

parking in the pits was such an issue that they extended the pits out all the way to the road. in doing this they cut a lot of spectator parking, however, this was done long after the last time usac or the outlaws were there. there isnt a ton of parking available, but the main concern for a long time is that keith was down on campers....everyone knows that a lot of people camp that follow the races. i believe if everyone wants it to happen then there needs to be clear expectations from both sides so as to not cause tension.

They would need to get someone who knows how to prep a track....was there a few years ago and left after 2 heats because track was a joke.....

Keith has done a good job the last 2 seasons on track prep! Hammer down with moisture through the heats and still patches of moisture in the feature too. Tire wear is very minimal too!

It couldn't hurt to have a talk with POWRI.

The last time I camped there we had to park next to the dumpster,no awning and no grill. Its was clear he didn't welcome campers!!

when we raced there back in the 90s he never gave us a track that was even close 50 to 60 cars and lap times would fall 2 seconds if u didnt draw good there was no way that u was gonna have to run the nq race. but at least if its a usac race u will get paid the last time i ran a mod there in 08 i never got paid called kieth he blew me off and he never called back. got crashed in the b-main it was only 30 bucks but it was just the idea that they wouldnt pay me o well he prob. needed the money worse than me.

If USAC's schedule is as full as it was last year, I doubt there are any Saturday nights left. Keith would you be opposed to doing an old school Wednesday night show? Also before I consider calling the USAC office, do you have a plan for parking and campers? If there is no plan, it seems a phone call would be putting the cart ahead of the horse. Good luck and I hope this works out.
