2020 Schedule

[Stevensville Mike]

Loaded schedule......? No WoO. No All Stars. No SOD. This new FAST series on a whim.....

Nate, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt but you are a LOT more optomistic than I am when it comes to "loaded". Every time I see "Crate" on my left I go right. Every time I see "Crate" on my right I go left. Nothing against Hartford, for it is a great place to watch the races and mingle with all of my buds, but I might have better places to go come the 2020 season when crates come knocking at my weekend.

I wish Hartford the best nonetheless.

I will try to be positive, but wonder about the car numbers. So Michigan now has a crate sprint car class from a race track no one has heard of before. So how many crate sprint cars do they have to put on a race? I will also ask the same of the 1000 cc lightning sprints. I google map the Orleans speedway

Looks like the Jackson minisprint race track has more grand stands and the parking lot is a mud pit race track.

It’s a series that started with crate late models. They added crate sprints after PLYMOUTH dropped them. I’ve been keeping up on this through out the winter. It’s a new series. As we all know anything new takes time. I’ve heard of Orleans Raceway. They were supposedly closed by the city a while back and have re-opened. It will take time to build the series. Their not stuck at one track now. A few of the races are non wing. As far as the late models go.
; they have a chance at getting 20 cars a race. The sprints we won’t know about yet until mid season how things are going. Just my thoughts. They had other tracks signed with the series this year just couldn’t find dates at didn’t conflict with others. Some of those tracks included Gas City & Oakshade.

Thanks for doing the gumshoe work with respect to keeping up on this series, and all of the schedules you post, Nate. Always appreciated.

I wish all involved, which includes the series, the tracks, and the drivers success. Just because it might not be my cup of tea doesn't mean I don't realize that others enjoy it and will follow it.

Guess will see in due time how things turn out for them. I would prefer it be a 305 division but it is what it is.

Great attitude! That's pretty much how I feel about NASCAR nowadays.

I would prefer it was an open sprint division. If you have a sprint car, it's legal. Show up and race. I grew up 10 minutes west and now live 45 minutes north.
