Looking forward to this event. Wish it were more than one day. Would be great for this to be turned into a three day special like Smackdown is at Kokomo. Why not showcase TSS the same way. Have a second marquee event at the we only other track in Indiana that could handle it. Everyone come out and support the Helfrich family.

Unfortunately the Central Indiana heavy Sprint Car Fanbase won’t support a southern Indiana event of that magnitude.

I am going to Circle City on Friday. Not 100% sure if I can make Tri State on Saturday. As for wishing it was a 2 day show. I can only remember one 2 day show at Haubstadt, since I first went there in the mid 80's. It was MOWA the first night, and the Outlaws the second night. I didn't go, but I am sure they had a good crowd for the Outlaw portion.
I would go for sure, if this was a USAC full points race. Not sure why they don't take advantage of a close battle for the championship. Seems like you could really use that to your advantage. As for Central Indiana fan base not supporting, that road runs both ways. How many people from southwestern Indiana made it to the Smackdown? With my health problems, late at night and early mornings are when I really struggle. If I knew they could be done around 10 local time, I could talk myself into that 4 hour drive while losing an hour. Hope it is a good race, and a good crowd. Early weather looks good.

Im planning on doing the Haubstadt double. The racetrack and Dewigs meat market. (The Disneyland of butcher shops)

When in doubt Gas It

You have to create and grow a event. Most don't profit first year but if it's worthwhile and people get the word out. It grows.

The central Indiana people can just visit their local John Deere dealer two days in a row and save on expenses.

Find a purpose in life ..... Be a bad example
