USAC schedule shows sprint cars at O'Reily Raceway Park this Thursday June 10. Was wondering has there has been any advertising in the Indy area about this race? I know most people on IOW are dirt fans, but I haven't seen anything about this race at all. Is this race even going to happen?

Good question Cowboyhar69, I have the same question about the USAC Silver Crown race at Oswego in August. Even my contacts that work in the Oswego Speedway office have no idea if that race will happend once again just like last year they don't have a signed contract yet. My best advise to you would be to call the USAC office or ORP to find out about that race. I have never found USAC to do much advance advertising for any of there races I have attended.

I think it is USAC's viewpoint that the advertising is the promoter's responsibility

The race is on O'Raceway Parks oval schedule.

And I think they mentioned the Sprint Car race over the PA at the Night B4 the 500.

How is this wrong? They are the PROMOTER for a reason, to PROMOTE the race. USAC is a sanctioning body.

Keith,

When you click on the schedule on the track website, it shows this race and also Thursday night July1 for USAC sprints. When you click on the ticket info all that comes up is the night before the 500 midget and the Sliver crown race on July 22. How's someone suppose to know what the ticket prices are or anything else about this race? Is USAC promoting this race themselves?

not being involved is not working for usac or its members!they need to take charge and promote and advertise! doing nothing is not working.
