I wouldn't be so sure that Haubstadt will lose. I'm betting TSS still gets a decent turnout with sprints, especially from some of the smaller budget teams. Why go over to the Big E when you can go be competitive in Haubstadt. The midgets already struggled numbers wise last year for the 4-Crown so basically just expect the same this year. POWRi will be just fine like they always are that night.

Either way, there's always going to be overlap. You can't expect one series or track to hold off on a race just because another is racing at the same time. Maybe if USAC was more willing to get together with some of these smaller or rival series more often there could be better planning on both parts. I know were seeing it this year with WoO and what not and they did it with POWRi last year at Kokomo so not sure why there's not more of that happening. It certainly wouldn't hurt the sport.
