Also, it is not meant to eliminate any current Wilmot regular division. We have been approached to create such a division by several racers, from various racing backgrounds.
Latemodel55, not to put you on the spot, but do you know: What is the expected car count to start the season? What class are most of the drivers coming from? What is the payout for winning a modified feature? Also, looking at Outlaw Race Parts a complete 604 crate engine accessory package is $2600. So I would expect a new engine with all the bolt-ons will be at least $8,000?

I thought the mini sprints were the beginner/budget sprint car class? Again instead of taking away from the minis that seemed to be getting good car counts again and doing something to bring sprint cars back out already in the area by having weekly shows why try a new division? How long are they going to run and pay a division with a weekly car count of 10-15?
