Non-wing sprint car racing needs it's own big event that pays $50,000 or near to win with a respectable purse; but it needs it in what I feel is the home state of non-wings, in Indiana.
Outside of Lawrenceburg, I don't know of a place that could take a real go of trying to make it work due to limited seating.

There are very few big paying non-wing events; which is why it's good to support them when someone tries to put one together. That said that doesn't mean everyone has to give up the weekend and ship off 7 hours or more away.

Maybe if Knoxville or anyone else starts and grows and event it will eventually earn World 100 type of respect where no one would dare schedule against it with a semi major series or anywhere near the track. But that takes time to earn.
