I am looking for a good used Hoosier 96w left rear and a couple of fronts, since this is a Hoosier only race. PM me.
Thanks.

Does anyone remember, october 2013, eldora speedway, 131 sprint cars of all types, about 23 great races, 25.00 pit pass,all completed in one day, this 2 and 3 day stuff, is a get rich quick scam, by the time, we take our cars, for a 2 or 3 day show, we are all paying our own 35.00 and 40.00 pit passes, if each car has 4 people, with it, between travel, food, lodging, we are racing for free, and losing, job time, plus all the rest, of what it takes, to field each car, this is the dumbest thing i have ever heard, in 50 years of racing, Chuck Carpenter

Chuck, In 50 years of racing, you never heard of the "Dirt Track World Championship" ?
started in the late 70's by Carl Short at the famous "Pennsboro Speedway" in WV, A very successful 3 day event for all these years, scheduled at Portsmouth Raceway Park this year the weekend before the Atomic special. Always have huge car count and fan support.
Apparently, some people (racers & fans) like these events, plan their schedule & budget accordingly.

Ask Carl Short how dumb this 3 day idea was/is.

Wasn't that Eldora deal scheduled for 3 days ? condensed due to weather/temps. very low turnout, dropped from the following years schedule, may have been 2012 fun/fest deal, some of these work, some don't.

Don't forget tonight is the last night to save $50 by Pre-Entry. Looks like already 45 Sprints have Pre-entered.

What's Atomic like? Never been there but willing to take a chance. Dustbowl or not? Multi-groove usually? Need some help here for a 300 mile drive.

Pennsboro is on the rise. Trade show/swap meet there this weekend. It's a fundraiser for more facility work.

All I need is a heavy track and heavy buzz!

Last year's Sprintacular had 119 total sprints. The Blue Collar Bash was a multiple day deal in 2012, with Mini-Sprints too.
