My thoughts on the schedules are this:

The midget schedule is excellent. It will allow for a guy to more than likely run USAC (dirt) and POWRi points in the same year if they choose. The only iffy thing is the move of the Hut 100. Granite City is a great track but Haubstadt was awesome the last couple years. The race will still be a must see. I love the fact that the Gold Crown is co sanctioned as well as a weekend at little belleville!

The Silver Crown Schedule shows that they are trying to move in the right direction. 11 races I believe is one more than last year. The trip to the Belleville Highbanks should make for an awesome race in front of the midget nationals crowd. Looks like no Iowa Speedway this year or Toledo. However the addition of Gateway will be awesome! The move back to methanol will help in my opinion as well.

The sprint car schedule looks similar to last years. I really have nothing to say about it.

Overall it looks like USAC did a great job this year and is starting to listen to the fans.
