Dialing.........Kyle Larson come finish what you started a few years ago and get paid for it. I"m sure Rico, and Christopher Bell would give it a shot. Too bad they will most likely be busy.
It would be fun to see for sure, but Clauson would be the initial favorite to win all four.

To get it done you will have to win The All Star race. That will be the toughest one of the four to win.

I couldn't disagree more. The toughest one to win will be the race where the most goes wrong. I was there when Jack won all four, and I was there when Kyle won 3. A lot of factors go into a sweep. A driver will have to have everything go right. I love this idea.

I would say the key to this would be landing a ride in a Keith Kunz Midget.

Who's actually got all four rides. And who's actually good enough and will be there in each class? Bacon, Clauson, Who else? IDK, Maybe the Badlands thingy and a few others will create more crossover but I see far less going from Winged to NW than vice versa.

IMHO this is a more impossible task than when Hewitt did it. Not to mention if they can keep the track raceable.

Will Haud give it a try ?

I will say this. I bet if someone wins the bonus, it will not be their first USAC wins that night.

I agree, it will take as much golden horseshoe luck as talent.

My point is there are only a few guys that can put the wing on and beat the All Stars at Eldora, especially Dale Blaney, whom will not crossover. So winning the All Star race will be the biggest challenge. I believe I named the only four guys that have the talent and equipment that could do it in the current landscape. That was my point.
Clauson really is the only one with a legit shot to win it. Assuiming the other three aren't in attendance.

Don't forget that Darland and Ballou have been known to run with the tin top ! Ballou most recently, but DD ran a wing with USAC & also with the AllStars & Outlaws at Kokomo back in the day.
