....on the Sat before the 500?
Is that what this article is saying?

Sounds like the Crown cars replacing the midgets on the "Night Before the 500"

So. are there any dirt-to-asphalt Silver crown cars still in existence? Does having this race a couple of days after the race at the Indy Fair grounds hurt the car count in either race? Or has everyone have a car specifically for dirt and one for asphalt?

Seems like a logistics nightmare for guys running pavement silver crown and little 500? L 500 hot laps at 6 or so. Irp would need to wrap up pretty early to allow teams to pack up and get to anderson.

Day show. Am I correct reading into that they don't want to go up against the Little 5? That seems like a good move to me. The drivers don't have to choose. I'd think it would do nothing but help the car count. I like the idea of being able to go to both shows- just adds to the 500 weekend.

I think they were talking more about freeing up the junior class cars that are tied in with the Indy cars, than the Silver Crown cars.

The article stated: "These will shift to an afternoon pair of races to avoid scheduling conflicts with other activities taking place that day." So, there would be a pair of races, the Freedom 90 and the Freedom 75, besides the Silver Crown. It wasn't specific about the other activities.
