Sprint Car Races at Twin Cities in 2013
 
I just got off the phone with the man in charge himself and he said dont worry sprint car fans, there will be some sprint car races in 2013. Information will be released as we figure out the best possible dates.

Thank you

We already have Bloomington and Gas City on Friday, LPS, Paragon, Lawrenceburg and sometimes TSS on Saturday. The only track consistently running (that I know of) on Sunday is Kokomo, although TSS does schedule some of their events on Sunday as well. That might be the night with the least conflict.

I am gonna get flamed for this but I dont really think there is enough cars for yet another weekly sprint car track. Specials, sure but not weekly. Hopefully before we see sprint cars there again someone will fix the fence.

If this track really is changing hands, fixing the catch fence and the bleachers should be a top priority. Just saying. I think that would go a long way in the minds of the fans and competitors.

this is a true statement im about to make here but dave allison said he was not going to come off of any money to upgrade anything. which sucks because the new promotion team is doing this out of their own pockets

As long as dave allison owns the track there will never be anything done until it has been shut down & he does not get anymore monthly payments coming in.
Don`t want this to happen but it might bee the best way to get that screwball out of there

So who is the man in charge, or is it a matter of national security?Wish the No Way Out was still there.

Closing it down maybe the only way to get things done, but with so many other tracks so close racers & fans may not come back! Hope Sumo& team pull this off

I'm so excited for this. I know the fence needs work but regardless the track is one of the best places to see a race. Hopefully it becomes the go to track for late models in the Hoosier state. With a few special sprint shows sprinkled in. Side note hewitts flip down the back stretch is one of the nastiest rides ive ever witnessed.

That's a whale of a undertaking, hats off to the new crew for doing this out of there own pocket book. Hopefully race teams and fans reward them for all the effort.

I agree. Will be nice to have the infield at the same level as the track. Hoping for good things in 2013. I've always loved this track but hating watching the race play out by who could manuever around the holes/ruts.

Does the grocery store there in Geneva, still belong to the Lortz family? Agree on the A selling it to someone, and leave them enough money to make it right! Bob
