I have often wondered why no more midget shows in Indiana. Yes, you got Midget week but then that is it. Couldn't get a couple other weekends of pairing up races. No races the entire month of August? Just my thoughts

I think a lot of it has to do with scheduling around the sprints and silver crown. Only so many dates available. A stand alone mid week show probably wouldn't be good for a promoter.

We have four other races outside of Midget week. That includes the BC39 @ The Dirt Track at IMS.

At least we weren't completely shut out over here in The Land O' Lincoln & crooked politicians in reference to the midgets, like we are regarding the sprint cars. Gladly, we've got 3 events scheduled over here in Illini Country!

It's GREAT to see the Shamrock Classic back on the schedule for 2022!!!! However, on the down side there is no December pre-Christmas 2022 event on the docket.

Lets pack the Southern Illinois Center on the 17th & 18th of this month so someone will see the upside of promoting the December event and take up the mantle and put it on the schedule for 2022 as a late entry down the line a bit! Especially now that the midgets aren't part of the dome thing in St. Louis.

Silver Crown Championship Dirt Cars properly driven on a one mile dirt track are classic poetry in motion. Using that analogy, Jack Hewitt is one of the greatest poets of all time.

There's a Wayne County Speedway in Illinois, too?

I am tickled pink to see Revin Kevin bring them back to my home track but why the heck would they do that the day before Indiana Midget Week begins?

We have the 2 day Kokomo Grand Prix and dates at Gas City, Haubstadt and the BC 39.
