Looking at I-96 schedule they show USAC sprints on May 4 but the USAC schedule does not have it on it. Is it going to happen? I would be a happy to see the USAC boys up north.

I'm guessing not unless they get another show somewhere close for the 3rd. I can't see them asking everyone to drive that many hundreds of miles for a one night, stand alone show. But I sure hope they do come up here.

Good point, Eric. Car counts have been small whenever USAC crosses the northern border and comes into the country of Michigan. Last time I remember them racing at Hartford, about 1/3 of the field was SOD regulars running their cars w/o the wing. They need a good back-to-backer. Someone also needs good $$$-to-$$$ to bankroll it.

BUT...... one can always ask Santa for a Christmas present come May.
