[QUOTE=john3g;159228]First off the the Non-wing Up-rights will run with the midgets. We welcome you guys.They (Up-rights) will have "NO" weight rule or tire rule. The full Midgets "WILL HAVE" both.

First of all, congratulations on thinking outside of the box and opening up an area where the slightly outdated midget can race without being overwhelmed with $money$
We have a series here in Missouri that is basically what you are trying to do, Ozark Mountain Midget Series. It is very competitive, with the upright mini sprints making up about half of the field.
You might want to re-think the tire rule with the mini sprints. I don't have statistics but I believe the mini sprints have won at least 50% of the races contested by OMMS. I can tell you on the bull rings the mini sprint will flat spank the full midget.
Good luck and if you get around the St. Louis area we might just dig out the Stealth Duggin and see what we can do.
