A little confused with all the Division II midget talk & have a couple quick questions.

Are all of the cars that race at the Montpelier midget races legal with the POWRi Midwest Midget Series?

This group will combine MMSA legal mini sprints, Ford Focus, Ecotech and midgets like the #39 that Spencer Bayston won in at Montpelier last Satutday night?

I do think the way the rules are written TQ's would be welcome. I see adjustments in the future>>there are a lot of older Nationals Midgets that should be allowed to race also the organizers just need to get their feet wet first. I would like to see a bunch of older VW's and stock block Chevy II get pulled out of peoples barns.

DAD,

I wasn't even thinking if TQ's would be legal or not. I know Montpelier's midget class is starting to bring in a good car count and was wondering if all of the cars that race there would be able to race with this series. I guess that is not the case.

So POWRi now has 3 divisions, national type midgets, sidewinder/micro sprints & the new combo class of mini sprints & all midgets other than national.

Thanks for the response.

Division II is part of POWRi as a separate class of cars just as there are with USAC. Then there are regions as North East Outlaw Midgets, Southern States Midgets and now Midwest Midgets.

POWRi Division:
  • National Midgets
  • Division II Midgets
  • 600 Mini Sprints

I could make a list of USAC but instead I will do NASCAR

Nascar:
  • Cup cars
  • Xfinity
  • Trucks

Hope that explains it Bob
