What is up with the Silver Crown series? USAC shows a race at THAT,THATsched show no Silver Crown race.
In an insert in NSSN it shows that the races on the dirt miles have UMP Mods as a support series. It surely can not be.Between hot laps, qualies and a 100 lap race it would be 2AM before the show was over with the Mods.
Where does this stuff get started?

Dyno Don,
DuQuoin and I believe Springfield have had modifieds as a support class for a number of years. I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong about Springfield.

Don, I believe the UMP Mods were added this year to all 3 dirt miles.
They have been a staple at DuQuoin since 1994.

Track Enterprises controls all three of the dirt miles, and they are in prime UMP territory. It actually makes sense if you want to diversify your fan base.
Also, TBA could be as simple as signed contracts have not been exchanged between the track and the sanctioning body.

With Oswego a TBA is never a good thing, in my opinion if Kahne is not promoting this event it wont happen this year. Just the vibe I'm geting from guys at and around the track staff.

I talked to Mike King about a month ago and asked him among other things, about the silver crown race at THAT. He was pretty clear that it was not going to happen this year. Of course all things are subject to change.....
