I hope you're right John. It would be great to do the double of Winchester/Lawrenceburg.:thumb

Save your money and skip Winchester, they will screw you out of it. I will be at Lawrenceburg.

At winchester the biggest problem isnt what time they finish, its the fact that teams MUST unload in the infield which mean an additional hour after the race before most could get back across the track to load up. The last sprint show there we also had to wait for the crapper 50 lap feature to finish. All told we were finished loading almost 1.5 hours after the sprint checkers flew. Dont be fooled, I'm guessing USAC knew exactly what they were doing, making team/ driver choose where they will run. JMO

I would hope that USAC and Dave have discussed this and there are provisions in place so that the teams wanting to run Sat nite at the burg will have the time necessary. Why else would Dave post the rigs and cars can stay after Fri nite's show with security. I'm thankful we have a high paying 2 nite show to end the season. I'm sure USAC has thought this out and respects Dave and the other series to allow their teams to participate. That's alot of money up for grabs. It should indeed be an awesome weekend for racing.

Great to see the Gold Crown Midget Nationals back for another year!

Wish the Sprints were at Granite City a time or two though...

Best national schedule i've seen in years. 2 day old timer's show at Winchester, 2 day sprint show at Eldora to open things up here in the midwest. Also good to see the 400 at Anderson being tried again. I heard that may be a national event this year. Good job Kevin.:thumb
