What are the best two races to attend
 
Hello All, I am planning on making two trips to Indiana this summer to see some wingless sprint car racing. What would be the two best races to attend ?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Little 500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 33 cars and no follow the leader. You either can drive lap traffic of you become the lap traffic.
And about any other track that runs Sprint Cars!

My inner smartass says the next two.

But all of the above are good. Whichever two you choose, I hope the weather is agreeable.

Little 5. It's the greatest sprint car race in the world. Then anything at Winchester. Midgets were awe inspiring at that place

Next Friday's Josh Burton Memorial at Bloomington. Since all the changes at that place , the racing is spectacular. This is the last lap at their last race. This is for the lead. Cottle low, Short high, Cottle won.

Pick any two Sprint Week Races I've come down to attending four of them and wish like most I could make em all.

I usually choose Kokomo/LBurg and Putnamville/Terre Haute as those two are 30mi apart. And all supply the type of racing I like
