I think letting them run any MIDGET tire would be good. As glad as I am you are including the TQs I think it should be one purse for all, no bonus for 1st and 2nd TQ, kind of make it a "Formula Libre" race with a max displacement. I think the TQs should do pretty good, they will have less tire wear and the brakes should hold up. Like AJ said when the TQs ran there last time the TQs hot lapped with the midgets and were keeping pace and in a couple cases like Terry Goff were flying thru the midgets intn and thru the corners. Will be fun to watch, I was going to the last 2 anyways now it'll be even more fun! Thanks again for the Sunday series Mr. Barhorst!

In addition to the regular midget purse.....I will pay $200 to the top TQ...and $100 for theTQ in second....I will do the same for Kenyon/Focus cars (together).....

I am going to try to round up some contingency prizes..that we will feature on our website ...for midgets...TQ's..Kenyon and Focus...If a company would like to trade...e-mail me.

Thanks,

if TQs work out at the Speedrome how about letting them run the Rumble Series? lol, talk about places a TQ could whoop up on a midget! I'd even go to TOLEDO to see that! Well to see that and get some Tony Packo's!

I agree if it works out i think there would be a good attendance indoors for the tqs to.

I will have to state right now that the TQ's will not be running with the midgets indoors. Everything will stay the same there.

What may happen is...if this works out..I may want to promote some T.Q only shows at the Speedrome, or on open dirt tracks in the future. The goal here is to run each in their own division in the future...but for this next event..July 19...we are going to give the TQ's a shot with the midgets. August 30 will be a TQ only event.

I am not going to go this route all the time. But lets have some fun with it this once....Maybe once a year.

I want to send this message out to all that have competed...and will enter our events in the future.

One thing that will not be tolerated from now on in our races is the rough driving...hard, intentional contact we have seen from two or three drivers the first two races. I understand there was an incident like this a Grundy County last week also

Drivers will be warned at the drivers meeting...the first rough driving call means a driver goes to the back...a second...and they are disqualified.

I also want to point out that the full midgets will have an open tire rule.
