Nothing like seeing some great racing events at the burg. Probably a couple of Kodak moments and life time memories can and will happen at the burg. Lmao. Thanks.

Did they change promoters? The facilities are great but the track sucks. Hoping they did Dave does a good job with everything but track prep

Shame they won’t book a OVSCA or FAST winged 410’s when they don’t schedule the non wings.

Lawrenceburg is situated nicely between the Indiana and Ohio Racesaver groups. A co-sanctioned race would bring a great car count and put on a good show. All while not breaking the bank!

We have a few co-sanctioned races this year at Moler and Twin Cities where we are looking to prove the viability of this type of show to the IN/OH/KY region.

Of course though, scheduling races and operating facilities and series' all have a lot of behind the scenes work that play into the conversation. I'm just hoping we all get to go racing as much as possible this year!

Lawrenceburg has held a Racesaver Sprint race before - August 29, 2015 (against the Kokomo Smackdown). Eric Smith won, only 14 cars showed up.

Now that date has been filled with our Hornet Nationals event.

Correct, however that was the first year that the RaceSavers even existed in Indiana. We have averaged 20+ cars per race for 3 years now and that is without any Ohio co-sanction races.

Either way, I can try all I want to get another race there, it is not my decision at the end of the day. I like to think there are plenty of race dates to go around for all divisions.

That was when the class was relatively new to the region. Look at the 305 division now. They have a good following with in the Indiana/ Ohio/ Illinois area now get a good field of them pretty much every where they go. If you don't give them a chance how will you know they would show up. Ask them on the tracks Facebook page to reply with driver name & car number to gage interest on having show. That would be a start.
