Montpelier has been burned by scheduling a new series in the past (X2RA Midgets, ICS Late Models, ASCT Sprints) so I hope this group doesn't end up the same way. I know the track just wants to get on the good graces of USAC, but I hate to see another flop, especially with 4 more races with this group scheduled.
Really Guys,

USAC web site go to Midgets, drop down box to D1 takes you to D1 page then click schedules. Once there you can check the results of the races run this year and the drivers names and car counts.

I think the idea was to give the newer or less funded guys a chance to gain seat time not having to make the show running against the National cars and not spend alot of money travelling. USAC has done this for the past couple of years, but now it has a new name and looks like more races.

At least they are trying.....
