We will be paying special attention to our Late Model program this week (8/7) and the Open Sprint show on 8/14 and see what happens. Nothing has been decided at this point regarding 2016. It seems that the Late Model community is in flux right now and our fans want more sprinters. But are there enough sprinters around to support a half mile on weekly or semi-weekly basis? I don't know for sure and that's why we are dabbling now instead of leaving questions on the table when snow flies.
My personal hope would be to see someone like Kevin Thomas Jr. show up to run double duty and see if he could do the sweep. (But then that's just the race fan in me.)

What a great honest answer. Best of luck to you guys the next couple of weeks and in the future. I know I'll be making another trip to Hartford in the future. As for Kevin Thomas Jr., he is making his way to Knoxville that weekend. Maybe Caleb Armstrong will come put on a show though.
