I plan on running it but as much as i have tried i will miss the 2 first races. Can be hard at times when theres no sponsors to get behind a person

The mini wedges and scrappers just run a feature so it goes pretty fast . There hasn't been any B mains either. It is not as bad as it sounds.

Last weekend the races started at 7pm and was done by 930 maybe a little earlier that's just 2.5 hours so even adding the midgets it won't be that late of a night .

Tow money for those not making the feature will be $50 if we get 20 or more cars it goes up to $75.

Promoter has option to start more than 20 cars it will be based on car count
