I still have plenty of both,but I save them for bigger trips. If they ran like Kokomo does on a Sunday night I wouldnt think twice about heading over.

I don't know what time other tracks complete their shows. And I don't know what the order of events will be for the Hewitt. I will assume they will qualify. But during a regular show, we usually have 100-120 cars. Running 6 classes that's 11-15 hot lap sessions, 11-15 heats, 2 or 3 b mains and 6 features and are completed before midnight. We do try to keep action on the track with little downtime and a short intermission before the mains. I can't guess how many sprints, but ill guess there may be 3 heats of minis and three heats of trucks. Maybe a b for both. So even with 5 Sprint heats, there will be less races to complete on the track. I think its going to be a really great night and hope you all can make it out and enjoy yourselves.

I was hoping that with this being a bigger show and a Sunday night, they might only try to run say the sprints and 2 support series. Using your time frame for a regular show, midnight for us means a 2 1/2 hour drive home that puts us here at 2:30 AM. The 6:00 AM work bell doesn't leave much time for

Yes, non wing sprints, mini sprints, and 4 cylinder trucks. 3 classes not 6.
