USAC Show at Raceway Park
 
Just wondering if anyone knows if their will be any discount tickets or coupons for next Thursdays race?

I was able to get 18 dollar discount tickets for the ARCA race at Menards. Yes I know its not open wheel racing but any racing close to home is good. Besides Bloomington is not racing next Friday night.

Also does anyone know if USAC post entry list for the Midgets and Silver Crown cars ahead of time?

The 5 dollars I save can be spent on parking.

I meant spend money at the restaurant that provided the discount tickets. Showing support is the best way of saying thank you.

On USAC Racing's Facebook page, you can print out the coupon on there and get a $5 discount.

I was just trying to joke about the parking. No I have been to the Pit Stop BBQ. They have good food and I also enjoyed seeing all of the racing stuff. Its always a good place to stop in at.

This is most likely a USAC promotion, they keep things a secret for some reason. Everyone on this site is a racing fan and knows how to get information, and the target audience is ?

This will be the strongest entry of the year, my guess is 18 Sc cars, and 33 midgets.

Was going to go tonight and tomorrow, but due to Usac putting a time limit on the CRA Jegs Late models I will be skipping this event. 31 preregistered teams and your going to put a time limit on them the day before the show. wow.... I will go support the late models when they return this fall.

Dont really know why they decided to add the LM's in the 1st place. Wouldnt it make more sense to run them with the other tin tops?

Adding LM's was a good idea, this event will be well attended and USAC needs to provide a program. 31 LM's will help support (smoke screen) a Silver Crown race that will most likely have less than 20 cars, there is even a chance that they could start 50% of the 33 cars they started just a few years ago!!

is it a usac show or a cra show? I'm all for a time limit on stock car shows if i'm going to see an open wheel show. the midgets tonight should have more than enough cars to put on a show. 16 or 30 champ cars will still put on a great show. I don't go to a open wheel show to see stock cars.

Besides its the Rich Vogler Classic, was Rich a LM driver? Dont think so, they dont even mention the LM's on the radio commercial I just heard.

Directly from a CRA Official.

Track record is 21.284. So lets say 23 seconds per lap. Just over 38min. of green flag racing action. The race has a 45min. time limit from what I understand. 1 wreck will easily burn up that 7min. If your worried about time, why not run them last? I am sure the midgets will have a decent car count. I am guessing there will be 15 to 18 SC cars. I could understand if we were talking about a street stock race or something like that. This is one of the top late model divisions in the country. alright exiting soap box now. Hope u guys see a great race tonight.

I just hope we get this race in period. If for some reason the evil rain word ruins things whats the back up plan to make this race up? With USAC running at Eldora on Saturday night I am guessing this race could be one of those races that never gets made up.

Its starting to look like the weather might not be that bad tonight I hope they get the show in. Sunday would be a bad day for a make up.

if your looking for some up to date info on the site, check out http://www.speed51.com/2012_Stories/..._LOR_7-26.html
This is a Late Model site but they do talk about other divisions that race with late models. The have a picture of the #4 beast car. Also mention:
NASCAR K&N Pro Series East driver Kyle Larson is here running a midget as is NASCAR Whelen Modifed Tour driver Bobby Santos

Few other photos as well.

Lincoln Chapple 7/26/12 5:21 PM

I want SC cars to grow in numbers just like everyone else, but I could still stand there all day and watch just one coming out of 4. One of the few things that gets me excited these days.

Don't have to worry about someone standing in front of you. Not enough people here to worry about that. Sc quals just starting.

Thanks for the info. It became a sidenote since they changed the original schedule of events around and ran the CRA Jegs feature last. With the way USAC ran that show last night, they should be put on a time limit.:17:

The sad part is after a couple laps 5 of the 16 cars pulled into the pits.
