Midwest Throwback Sprint Cars are on Facebook maybe that’s what they are talking about.

Is that the bunch that came to Bush Stadium in Indy and ran there, from the east somewhere? Weird cars, but interesting!

I think it is a reference to an oil derrick. Only a guess on my part. The street signs on Main street in Gas City are made to look like them. Anyone know what the T after some of the classes means?

Thanks, that's what I figured, but I think that's what ran at least 1 time at the old stadium in Indy, they were full bodied cars, with automatic transmissions, some unusual club from the East, been a while, probably weren't more than 20 in the club. Just thought someone else might have attended the midget races there.

Already booked 8 Friday nights along with a Thursday and a Saturday overnights. I love this track and Kokomo for consistently kind people who welcome this Ol' Buckeye into their ovals for the past couple of decades. Most on here are so fortunate to enjoy non wing sprint cars so close to home. Please be kind to all tracks and only post positives on all social sites. Remember, no promoter is in business to disappoint or alienate the teams, drivers, staff, and fans. Have a safe and enjoyable 2023 racing season.
