about 5 years ago i had 2 sprint rollers and tried to get something going with the 305's or some kind of limited class and i couldnt get a track to try it..and most of the guys who were running sprints already had a ton of money in their motors and didnt want to try it either...i think if someone would run a 305 or limited sprint class you might have alot of cars ...there is so many guys and gals young and old who would love to try sprint car racing..as i found out when i had my cars used cars are really not that bad to get it is the motors that will cost you...the 305's are pretty big up in ohio..i even justed watch one car race ready with a 305 get bought on ebay for $6000 thats $1000 cheaper than my buddy just spend on his 600cc mini sprint..
