I'd love to do both,but like everyone else, time and money are factors.
One of my friends did 500 week + SprintWeek. I did MidgetWeek + SprintWeek. I think MidgetWeek was the best of all. I saw three fantastic midget shows (one was rained out), each of which was accompanied by a full sprint show.

I would like to get back to the Hoosier 100 again sometime, but all those other shows are on paved tracks, so I'm not interested. I have been to the 500 twice. I did not enjoy it the first time and only went back because some friends asked me to get them tickets. I have twice gone to dirt shows that weekend, then left town on the morning of the 500. I usually record the 500 on my TiVo and then, if nothing more interesting comes along, watch it at high speed.
