Midget or Sprint Week?
 

What has better racing?

I like midgets, but in so cal there is not a whole lot of midget racing anymore other than Turkey Night.

I know both weeks of racing (Sprint or Midget week) are awesome, but which one is more awesome? Is the weather better in June than July, etc

Any thoughts appreciated.

Illinois Midget Week... you get all the Poweri plus USAC's 3 team National Series!!

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Midget week. Some good midget car counts and 410 wingless sprint cars as the support division. Midgets are my favorite division.

Sprint Week. Weather is a total crapshoot anytime of year.

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Indiana Midget week, you get the local(and many USAC) sprint cars for the same $. Illinois sprint week you just get the POWRi mini sprints as the other class.

Sprint week is the greatest show on dirt.

This is like asking, "Blonde or brunette?". :3:

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Yea but I prefer red heads. Now im confused .. Maybe I try to make it to both. Im verrrrrry fortunate my gorgeous red head likes racing !

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Honestly you really can't go wrong either way. Midget week offers the chance to see both kinds of cars which kind of makes it a better value in my opinion, but at the same time it doesn't go to either Terre Haute or Haubstadt. If you want to take in some other types of racing while you're here Eldora also runs some races either slight before midget week and during sprint week if you wish so that might also be a consideration. A grounds tour at IMS is also another nice little side trip if you haven't done it before and they only offer those on certain days.

Midget week hands down. You get both divisions with a few guys doing double duty. Temps might be a little cooler and the crowds a little smaller for midget week which i like. Depends how much time and money you have to spend. Midget week is consecutive nights and sprint week isn't. Also it depends where home is for when this is done. Midget week ends at Kokomo and sprint week ends at Haubstadt which might make your trip home shorter or farther. Being from Wisconsin i like ending all our race trips at Kokomo!

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Both offer great racing. As others have mentioned, midget week gives you midgets and sprint cars. By adding Illinois midget week to your plans, you would receive the most bang for your buck. Great midget racing and sprint cars during Indiana Midget Week.

Sprint week has more followers and the time spent visiting with friends that many of us only see once a year is worth so much to us as well. How do you pick?

Solution!:16 I believe that we will do both.:D Sorry, no help at all I know.

Qualifying at terre haute is somethin special

Sprint Week by far!

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

There is just something electric in the air for every Sprint Week race I've ever been to; which is a handful at different tracks.
It may just be me, but there is something about Lawrenceburg Speedway during Sprint Week.

Bang for buck midget week. Nice to see the midget guys run sprints and sprint guys run midgets.
I prefer sprint week because it is very intense and on the track there are no friends the whole week.

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Midget week is the best kept secret in Indiana. It's like the 2 weeks combined. It's in June which can sometimes be cooler than the 100* days of July and sprint week. But agreed with everyone else, they're both awesome. I just see more of the racing I love with midget week.

Re: Midget or Sprint Week?
 

Our secret is getting out. Midget week is the best bang for your buck. Wish that it was a couple days longer. You won't be disappointed in either week. Going to start in Illinois for both weeks this year. Will hit a few sprint week nights as well. One of the luxuries of living in the openwheel dirt capital of the world.
