Complete shot in the dark here. Wondering if anyone remembers this one from 1999 ….
During the weekend of September 17-18, 1999 the Terre Haute Action Track hosted a two-day show. I believe Gerry Olson was the promoter. The USAC Silver Crown cars ran Friday night (9/17). Jack Hewitt was the winner. On Saturday night (9/18) there was a sprint car show. No wings. No sanction. The show ran against USAC sprints at IRP. I think LPS was dark. I seem to remember the field being made up of mostly Putnamville regulars. I left after the heat races. The show was running late. It had already been a long day as I was at the last show ever held at 16th Street Speedway earlier that afternoon. I never found out who won Terre Haute's sprint car feature. No results were published anywhere that I could find. There were only 18-20 cars. Very small crowd. The only detail I remember was Jonathan Vennard winning a heat race.
Anyone else happen to be there that night? Happen to remember who won? It was only 20+ years ago...
