If NASCAR has anybody with any brains in charge of scheduling they should release the following announcement this Sunday before the start of the Brickyard.....really capatalize on the buzz from last night and give people something to look forward to for next season....

*****The 2014 NASCAR schedule has just been amended. 2014 will see the truck series and the Nationwide series run two dates at both Eldora Speedway and Knoxville Raceway, and the Bristol Spring Race will now be all 3 series on the same red clay the Outlaws ran on in 1999-2000*****

They know it can be done with minimal changes to the vehicles. They know the people want to see it. They now know the drivers want it. Knoxville has similar facilities, amenities and seating capacity as Eldora...both could handle the 2 lower series. Bristol hasn't had decent ticket sales in years for any race and can clearly handle the amount of fans a Cup race brings. I know theres a huge difference in selling 20,000 tickets to fill a place up and selling 140,000, but if they would put the dirt on Bristol again they would get a whole lot closer to filling the place up than they have in the last 4-7 years.
