Here's a crazy idea: Indiana Silver Crown Week. Big cars on the bullrings.

Add 2 at Syracuse and that would be great. I think we'll see all the dates return from last year with Gateway added as well a surprise track added/re-added.

Racing on the high banks was tried in the late 1980s -- Salem -- and there was a very poor car count. Fans paid for a 100 lap and it was cut to 50.

Here's why I would say no to them in those venues. Race fans' minds are used to being blown by the faster, more nimble sprint cars at those tracks. It's best not to put them in situations that cause a direct comparison to be made with the sprints. Nothing against the Silver Crown cars, but NOTHING compares to favorably to that kind of race car, in that kind of setting.

I like that train of thought although I'd expand upon that a little. THAT, IRP (Don't waste your time correcting me, it'll always be IRP to me), Indy Fairgrounds, Hartford, L'burg, Toledo, Eldora?

Rebuild the Dirt Mile at the Minnesota State Fair.

The SC cars are great on half miles. Some that could be added include Des Moines, IA, Sedalia, MO, and Hutchison, KS. I would love to see more miles, though.

Silver Crown during Missouri Stare Fair in Sedalia would be cool

Start the season out West. Don't end it there.
Sacremento Mile (Would need to build some walls and a fence, but it would be cool)
Calistoga
Perris
Vegas?
(Western Swing is getting cocky for an attempt to revive the series but would be nice for the fans out on the west coast. Maybe save it for 2014)
IRP
Indy
Milwaukee
Iowa
Springfield
DuQuoin
Gateway
Belleville
Knoxville & Sedalia (Another two 2014 options)
Williams Grove (Eastern Swing?)
Syracuse
Toledo
Eldora
Lawrenceburg (2014?)
Terre Haute
