I didn't see the Wisconsin races but I did go to the one at Rockford Speedway (i live almost close enough to walk there). Attendance was poor. I don't understand why they can't draw any fans for the open wheel shows there. They had 2 HOSS sprint races a couple years back and had the same problem. The first year Hank Lower won the feature but with the attendance I didn't expect them back. The following year featured an exciting race with Tim Cox and his teammate
putting on a great race through lapped traffic with Cox making the winning pass coming out of four. Unfortunately that was there last appearance there. Now if you have a monster truck show or a trailer race the place is packed. Go figure.
