I would agree, Simon. The cross over of fans and/or drivers between the events would be minimal. The only dirt late model driver I know of that is passing on the St. Louis event to come to Du Quoin is Brian Shirley and to my knowledge there are no midget regulars who are passing on Du Quoin to race at St. Louis. We've attended every midget show but one that has ever been held in the SIC dating all the way back to when they ran a 2 night POWRi show during the Du Quoin State Fair on the Friday and Saturday nights of Labor Day Weekend. The crowd last year (2016) was at least as large as the year before (2015) when there was no St. Louis race.
It would certainly be interesting to know why they'd opt for Friday night over Saturday in 2018.
