Just a thought?

With powri prospering the last few years. What's the chances of the organization having a race at Montpelier In 2014? To me it seems like both Powri and Montpelier are trying very hard for midget racing to strive.

This brings me to another question. Would powri travel this far for one show? Or could their be a way to have Gascity, Montpelier, and Kokomo all on the same weekend? Just a few thoughts/questions I've thought about the last few days.

Why not a stop at Haubstadt on way since they have to pass though southern Indiana to reach northern Indiana

I dont think there is a need for another midget week. Just an action packed weekend. September would be a good month for this.

Montpelier is a great track to race on, but most likely would not spend the money it takes to get a POWERi show. Shady Hill was going to have a one off show in 2011, I believe and POWERi cancelled it. I believe they were concerned that too many of their regulars wouldn't make the tow. There might have been a scheduling conflict too.

It would also be cool to see Gas City, Pelier, Kokomo triple header..not trying to take anything away from our southern tracks..I know Poweri is going to Bloomington on the 28th with both classes..that is almost a dont miss kind of show..I hope with us bringing midgets back is getting more people interested in the series. I love open wheel racing as a whole.
