I know this is a indiana board but KLMS released their schedule last night and I was shocked to see USAC to be on it October 17. Hope they have a good turn out. Hope ppl travel to support this show!!

Sounds interesting and I will probably attend if it happens. This race is not shown on the USAC website and I noticed it pays $3000 to win. I believe the standard USAC sprint car purse is $5000 to win, but I'm not 100% positive. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
I just looked at the schedule again, and it appears the open wheel modifieds are receiving $3000 to win, and they are the featured division.

Beautiful facilities, hated driving by it while it sat vacant. Glad it is up and running, wish I was closer to go. Hope they have a great season. I am pumped to see a open wheel show their!!

I emailed Klms & Usac about the payout and why it's not on the schedule on usacracing. But no response yet.

This is definitely intriguing; a race I'd like to attend.

As of now, looking at their schedule, I hope they really don't intend to run 4 other classes on what will sure to be a cold October night. That might keep me away.

They have like an 11:00 curfew and they are strict about it. I've raced there several times and we were done by 10 or 1030 even on the big show nights

Confirmed today per USAC website

SPRINTS ADD OCTOBER DATE AT KENTUCKY LAKE

AMSOIL USAC National Sprint participants can look forward to the first series race in Kentucky in 16 years and the first on dirt since 1990 when Kentucky Lake Motor Speedway in Calvert City hosts the Sprints October 17. The last series race on Kentucky dirt came at Comtrax Motor Speedway in Glasgow and was won by Jack Hewitt.

This is the night after the sprint portion of the Kokomo Klash. Could be a long haul for some teams (and spectators).

I hope this doesn't take away from Sprints at the Klash.
