A few things I'd like to see USAC try next year: 1. Return to Paragon - I know a sprint week date would not be considered but how about a good old regular USAC sprint show!
2. Bury the Hut Hundred since its not going to be back at THAT.
3. Eliminate the Burg from midget week and replace it with Haubstadt.
4. Run a Silvercrown at the Burg instead.
5. Start the Haub 100 at tristate co sanctioned with POWri ARDC and Badger.
Just some random thoughts ready, disect!

I only agree with one. A Paragon race.

Id like to see Non transfers through the heats start behind the 16 who did regardless of their QT.

Why replace burg midget week? Just add one at Haubstadt

Champcar, One more dirt mile, Maybe two if Syracuse is getting dumped after this year.

I think Haubstadt did hold the Hut Hundred a few years ago

I love the burg but its becoming obvious that midget owners don't.
People say its not the Hut Hundred unless its at THAT. I went to one of the ones they held at Tri State great race!
One I forgot earlier, USAC events with 18 to 24 cars should have a format change: qualifying, 3 heats, 2 Qualifying races to set the feature and the feature. Two qualifying races would be better than an one 8-9 car b main.

1. Bring Back "Thursday Night Thunder"
2. A USAC race at Paragon and / or Daugherty (a.k.a. KAMP), Boswell, IN
3. Would live to see the USAC Sprints on the card with the WOO Sprints, Late Models, & Big Block Modifieds at Charlotte World Finals.
4. A few new tracks on the USAC Schedules: Fairbury, Montpelier, or I-55

2025 Season - TBA

Actually I wouldn't mind seeing the Silver Crown boys at the Burg. I'd like to see USAC at Paragon as well for the sprints.

Also, why not swing the series south to a place like Devil's Bowl and/or somewhere else before they head for Arizona and California to end the season?
Love seeing new tracks on the schedule. That's one freedom we have as far as dirt goes, tracks are abundant.

Just a few ideas

According to the reports on the web, the Syracuse grandstand and race track are definitely going to be demolished at the end of this season. They are building a controversial ampitheatre a mile away from the fairgrounds to hold concerts during the fair. LOL People in the Syracuse area don't want the new concert venue but they are going ahead with it anyway. New York tax dollars at work. hahaha

So a guy that qualified terrible gets put up front in the heat and runs 4th due to a 1 lane track should start in front of a quick qualifier that started 6th in a stacked heat? Not a chance. If a driver can click off a quick lap in qualifying, he deserves a fair starting spot. Not in be 9th row.

1. Get the USAC Champ Cars on the schedule during the Missouri State Fair at Sedalia and run the 1/2 mile track. They just had sprint cars there during the fair last Sunday night and the place was packed
