The place I'd really like to see them is Rolling Wheels.Big ,fast, and the couple of times I've been there the racing was great.
As for the Grove, when I went it was a full house.
Hagerstown was where Hewitt drove Jimmy Bryan's Dean Van Lines car for a few laps, and went fast enough to make the show easily. He told me that if he had started the feature with the car he'd of won the show with it.
The Champ Cars need a couple TV races to show what it's all about. Terre Haute wold be a great place to start. It would produce interest other then here in the midwest. Remember what Thursday night thunder did for sprint car racing. Too bad some people let that one get away. It would be a perfect format for Champ Cars.

I remember when Schrader won the Pepsi Cola 150 at IRP and those races used to be on ESPN. I also remember watching the Champ Cars at Knoxville in or around 1999 on TV too and I honestly don't remember who won, just memories of Hewitt in the Parker car banging it off the cushion and the fence too. What a show!!
