Haubstadt
 

Will any of the USAC teams and drivers be at Haubstadt Sat.night going for the $10,000.00 top prize. You would think some would since it's not that far to Salem for their race Sunday afternoon. I would love to see about 40 cars at Haubstadt.

This weekend is the Belleville Midget Nationals. So that eliminates all the guys that run for midget points.

Oh yea, I forgot about Belleville. I guess the heat is affecting my brain.

Re: Haubstadt
 

Im sure js short bland messurial clayton and all them will be at tristate sat

Re: Haubstadt
 

I really think there will be a good field of cars. 45+

Re: Haubstadt
 

O forgot hunter will be here too

Re: Haubstadt
 

We all know who ever runs sprint cars will be there goin for the 10Gs on saturday evening. I would expect 35 to 45 cars that would make for a great nite of racing.

Re: Haubstadt
 

The car count for this race has always been lower than one might expect. Lower 30's, usually. But, it has been and should be again this year, a top heavy field. Despite the lower car counts, this usually turns out to be one of the year's best races. I'm picking Hunter. He's running better than any non-wing driver on dirt, right now. And this is one of his two best tracks.

Re: Haubstadt
 

here are some notes from the last two years and the Hoosier Sprint Nationals notice the car counts.

Haubstadt, IN. (July 29th, 2006) Daron Clayton turned in an outstanding performance in what has been a brief 5 year sprint car driving career by winning the second annual MSCS Hoosier Sprint Nationals Saturday night at Tri-State Speedway. The 22 year old driver took $10,000 of Hoosier cash back to Sikeston, MO, after facing down 41 other competitors in one of dirt track racing’s biggest annual sprint car paydays.


2007 Hoosier Sprint Nationals at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, IN. The 50 lap event paying $10,000 to win and sanctioned by the Hoosier Tire Midwest Sprint Car Series drew 42 non-wing sprint car teams.

Re: Haubstadt
 

No doubt Hunter was awfully fast for the sprintweek show, but I bet Stanbrough will have fire in his eyes after getting on his lid that night. Stanbrough + fire-in-eyes = bad for rest of field.

Re: Haubstadt
 

Does anyone know about the 2B, 69, or a 2nd Walker car are going to run this race with different drivers. I'd think Clayton might be a good candidate for one of those rides.

Are you guys doing updates, Kyle?

I would love to get to Haubstadt on Sat., but I am between pay weeks and don't have the money.

Don't worry. There's almost always an IOW member at the track that makes sure that those that couldn't attend, for whatever reason, stay updated. I'm certain Saturday will be no exception.

I would like say thanks to the good people at Haubstadt for the work they do.

It isn't staying up, it is just expierencing the track in person and taking pictures.

Benic has had his car at this race each year so I'd like to see him bring someone along for Sat. The Edison team usually makes the tow as well. Don't know if Walker would bring another car or not since I heard he sold his big rig earlier this year. Looking forward to another great night at "The Class Track!" Contrary to some I love longer features. I wish every race at Haubstadt was 50 laps.

I would imagine that Dave would be in the 2B since that is his ride for rest of year wherever they decide to race.

That's what I was getting at 29. DD is in Belleville so I'm wondering if Benic will get someone else to drive at Haubstadt.

Re: Haubstadt
 

Ok...got a question here. The web site calls this the Hoosier Sprint Nationals. Does this mean it's a 50 lapper or is it special some other way?

Re: Haubstadt
 

It is a 50 lapper and it pays $10,000 to win

Thanks so much. I tried to tell the hubby it was a 50 lapper, but he wouldn't believe me.
