That doesn't interfere with smack down I hope? In my mind, usac, mscs, or any other non wing sanction groups should schedule against this race, including west coast clubs. I think this has the chance to be the biggest weekend in sprint car racing. And with the money out there, probably the best chance to get winged guys going topless, and vice versa, and I would love to see that. I'm planning on attending!

Why wouldn't they get 50 cars? and whats funny is its the same purse for winged too but they require 64 cars.

BC, Hunter Hines, Ballou, Courtney and a host of others I bet will try both. Question is, How many wingers will take the lid off And Im not sure if WoO top point peeps are even allowed We only had a handful for the Mopar Million. But a lot of 360 NRA/Sprint Bandit guys tried NW and many ate the wall in qualifying alone.

They are dreaming to think they will get 50 cars for this event. Heck I don't think they will get 64 winged cars. I agree with Duane, what is the purse if they don't get 50 cars. Heck, can't even get 50 at Smackdown which is the best paying show in IN. To me just another promoter that does not get it. The purse is way top heavy and drops real fast. Should be 25k to win and spread that other 25k through the field, B and C main guys. Guarantee every car $500 in tow money on top of their winnings. Guys going to tow 11 hours and 740 miles from Indy to run 2 nights. Add up fuel cost, hotels, probably $50 pit passes a night, etc. Maybe the big dogs will go but if not USAC sanctioned I can guarantee USAC will schedule a show against it. Just stating the facts.

If USAC schedules against it, I guarantee Husets gets 50+ and the USAC show will get maybe 20-25, WAR, MTS, BOSS, Elite and others would probably pull. USAC would be wise to schedule their Midwest tour in front or behind it.. Another thing is, This is basically a Limaland type quarter mile. Lots more would race it than say knoxville.

Thats why I said getting the ultimate challenge back and maybe a night at Knoxville would be a chance for some real $$$

I agree, The purse should be 30k in both, with more through the pack but it is what it is. Theres two nights of racing in each class and the NW is two days, back to back.

USAC will schedule against and so will the WOO. They spend too much money and time developing thier stars to let an "outlaw" promoter use them for his event. I also wonder about ticket prices. This promoter talks alot about concerts and entertainment. I know that I was paying $100 for a premium ticket at the last concert that I went to.

I will believe all this when I see it! August is a hot bed for racing here in Indiana and surrounding states so getting drivers and fans to drive to South Dakota for racing sounds like a great idea on paper but races aren't ran on paper. But a show of this magnitude would be awesome! Great for everyone. I would think Eldora would make lots more since though! We can always dream!
