So

A lot of people think there should be but one Midget class? There is no more room for anything but the ones sporting the latest model specialty motors. Probably less than 200 cars in the USA meet this requirement. Most of the others we include as back markers. At this point in time probably 90% of the races are won by 10% of the Midgets racing. Most Midget racers in the big races are actually racing for 4th place. This situation is what is killing off Midget racing folks. Racers race to win if winning is taken from the equation pretty soon the numbers of racers start to fall. One of the big objectives of a successful promoter is to even this number out.

Several years ago we went to John Godfrey then (Stealth Motorsports) and ordered a Midget roller. We specified a 1 1/8th" top rail and replace the rear end with a 2" spline Winters axle. We payed him for a Midget Roller. Installed a 600cc Motor and went racing. We called it a Mini Sprint. But the invoice said Midget Roller.

Before going into the Midget business does anybody know who John worked for and what type car he built mostly?

Sprint cars are defined usually by their shared in common chassis size and then by the engine size and then usually by Wing or w/o wing. Is that correct?

If we were to define Midgets this way would that take some of the confusion out of the name.

For 60+ years we have had 1/4 Midget since changed to .25 Midgets>>1/2 Midgets>>>Micro Midgets now with half a dozen names>>>3/4 Midgets>>>>and then the all Mighty Midget.

Seems reasonable we could sub divide this commonly shared chassis race car into several sub classes so as not to catch honest cash paying race fans off guard.
