I hate to say it but I think there will be some slim car counts at certain tracks over the weekend. Just too many tracks trying to run the same nights. Saturday you have to toss the Waynesfield show in also as that will take some drivers there. Going to be interesting.

I would say you are probably correct. Fans will have a number of choices to make this weekend as well. Friday night you have the normal Gas City and Bloomington races but you throw in the ASCT show at Union County and that makes three tracks running sprint cars just in Indiana alone.

Saturday night has the regular shows at Paragon, Lincoln Park and Waynesfield. Add to that the MSCS show at Tri State and Twin Cities hosting sprint cars and you have 5 tracks in the region running traditional sprint cars. Along with that you have USAC running midgets at Angel Park thus taking some of the sprint car drivers away.

Also in the area, KC Speedway will be hosting the All Star Circuit of Champions on Friday night and for the pavement sprinters Dixie Speedway and Owosso Speedway in Michigan host the Auto Value Super Series on Friday and Saturday respectively.

I spoke with a team source last night. The Foxco 53 will sit out tonight, but will be at TSS and Kokomo this weekend.

Tell me about it Dick. Every weekend I read what's going on in the area and I find myself wishing I was there.

There will be comparatively few sprint B Mains run this weekend. Not good that lower buck teams are parked right now. But the percentage of quality teams is higher and the racing itself hasn't suffered, by and large.

Heading to Twin Cities Sat. Everyone have a safe fun weekend wherever you go.
