The series is looking for a car count of 35 plus and the pay out could be something like this: $4000 to $5000 to win and $500 to start from 16th on back in a 24 car feature with a $200 guaranteed tow money. Qualifying is a must and the field will start straight up in the heats, consi’s and feature. This concept is a real one and a true possibility but we need input from all the teams! This would be an ASCT sanction event and all of the ASCT rules would apply. Please give us your ideas and feeling on this possibility.

People better remember Jeff Thickstun, he had no experience on a mile race track, running with USAC in the early 90's. No experience caused him to lose his life. Think twice before putting a group of young drivers on a track that can kill you quickly. Why do you think the World of Outlaws quit running mile tracks, the speed they carry and the damage they did when something goes wrong. On a 1/4 or 3/8th's mile track you only tear it up, on anything bigger you destroy you sprint car and possibly lose your life. PLEASE think twice before making any hasty decisions. Thanks
