Just saw where midgets are being added to the Gateway Dirt Nationals this year in an invitational format.

It would be a much better racing product than the fender cars on such a tight track. It would probably be a better race than the Chili Bowl too if the track is decent.

This has been a fun show both years. More fun added to the party. From the track layout I think the midgets will be an excellent show. I’m also glad it is on a separate weekend from DuQuoin. Now I can go to both.

Is there any sanction attached to the midget event? I'm guessing probably not given that it's an invitational.

I wish they would have a separate weekend and have a midget and wingless sprint show

this ought to piss emmett off! personally i hope this takes off! st louis is closer to home, the stadium can host a much larger crowd and it isnt in the middle of a demilitarized zone! not to mention, more hotel options!
