From Kokomo Facebook

April 12 & 13 - The Inaugural Kokomo Grand Prix

USAC & POWRI Midgets will battle at the Baddest Bullring in Indiana! Friday & Saturday night will be complete shows to showcase some of the best drivers in the nation going wheel to wheel. We are currently working with a few more midget groups to add even more cars & stars for this event. The POWRI 600 Micros & USAC Ignite Midgets will be the support divisions each night. The final details are being worked out & full details will be released in the next few weeks. Stay Tuned Kokomo Faithful!

Cool

I know I say I won't fly anywhere for fewer than 3 shows, but I'm going to have to make an exception for this one.

This is the second major co-sanctioned race with POWRi and USAC. Hopefully, a sign of more to come? Angell Park? Gold Crown?

How is the weather in early April in Indiana. It seems to be very early in the season to be having such a big show.

Before I read your post about the weather, I was thinking its finally nice to see a big race scheduled in Indiana when it won't be about 170 degree's....lol.....:8:

So-so. Let's hope for "so" and not "so".

The WEATHER? Expect the extremes, used to be the first USAC midget race was on the highbanks of Anderson Speedway in April, one year we froze and the next year got sunburned, so bring a big suitcase. To cure the cabin fever though it will be great to see an early April race weekend, so, crossing my fingers for this one. But just to be honest, we've had snow as late as May here, so who knows, either way, I'M THERE! bob.

Race Photo 1. How many POWRi shows did you go to last year? I have been to several going back to the MARA, and Gateway days. I don't remember ever seeing you at one. This show should be good thanks to EVERYONE invoved.

This is a Friday / Saturday show, so hopefully one of the other tracks will run Sunday & you'll have your 3 race weekend.

What a CONCEPT! Tracks working together with their schedules! :6:

Hats off to Kokomo and Anderson for spicing up April big time!

Sorry Funk, none last year, they didn't come to Indiana. Caught a few at little Belleville before, but on Sunday nights that's a Looooong drive to go to work Monday.

All I know is that they are a sucess, and it's great they're finally here.

I agree with you, Little Belleville is cool, but I think a big part of their sucess has been from not traveling too far. I am sure some of the teams think it is as far to Indiana as we think it is a long way to Western Illinois. Either way I think this co sanction speaks well for everyone involved and is good for the sport.

Actually last year they were co-sanctioned with USAC for the Hut 100 at Haubstadt.
