We hate the announcement. We,ve been flying in from R.I. For the past 15 years with the opportunity to get wing and non-winged 410s on a 4 day trip.The closest dirt track to us is in N.Y. This puts us out of the game.

I think this is huge in so many ways. I for one have to put my vacation time in December and knowing the dated early is huge for the blue collar fan🥃🏁😎

Brilliant announcement for this Brit. Ales has put in her vacation request, I've reserved a few Motels.

Interesting to see that more shows 'may' be added to the Florida swing as well, guessing a return to East Bay? But who knows maybe Volusia? but I wouldn't put money on that.

Ecco Global Tours post Midget Week dates would also be most welcome as well.

Well done USAC and all involved in getting the dates out there instead of sitting on them as if it's a hush hush nod nod wink wink secret until the trade shows.


UK USAC fan. No Invert, No Interest. No Gimmick Racing.

i guessed wrong on my 2018 vaca bid but can't imagine having too much trouble getting it worked out in time. How crazy might some of these crowds get now w/ Kings Royal no longer competing?!

THAT is an interesting question now that you brought it up. Some of these ISW tracks have only so many seats. You start adding in a bunch of fans who previously may have gone to the KR vice ISW and, yes, it COULD get quite crowded.

Now, on the OTHER hand, adding more ISW fans to Eldora and Attica might be considered a few more drops in the applicable buckets, but yeah.... it could get tight in the Hoosier State during ISW.

I'll risk it, though.

That could be a problem, even though it is a good one. Would love to see all tracks go to reserved seats. If not I will start it. Does anyone know when we can put down blankets?
