Im stealing this from two tracks in Illinois.
The only two feasable tracks that could do this would be either Gas City and Lawrenceburg, or Bloomington and Lawrenceburg
But two tracks in Illinois are paying an extra $10,000 to a driver that can win both track championships in one year.
Besides Stanbrough, who do you think could pull off the feat if two tracks here did that sort of thing.

I think that would be a great idea!
If it were Bloomington and Lawrenceburg, I'd say Briscoe would be a good pick if he ran both for points. Not saying he couldn't do it at Gas city but making the tow to Bloomington Friday and then the Burg on Sat. would be easier than Gas City to me anyway. :thumb:

I think Gas City and Kokomo would be a good pair. Less than an hour apart and most of their regulars run both tracks. I think they would have to make their tire rules the same first though. That would be a good way to give the local racers who support those tracks a shot at some extra money. I've often been under the impression that it would take nothing less than a Festivus Miracle to get promotors to work together.

I agree. Kokomo and Gas city would be the logistical choice for the north and Lawerenceburg and Bloomington in the southern half. Then after the "points" season is over, they could have a 2 race mini "state championship" and they could alternate tracks each year. Say Gas City and Bloomington one year, then Kokomo and Lawerenceburg the next year. Just dreaming in the wintertime...

It's nice to think about but the reality is we already have a glut of special shows. ISW, KISS, MSCS $10K to win, and a couple of memorial races such as the Dick Gaines race. How deep could the average fan dig in his/her pockets to go to all of these? I would rather see a sponsor get involved with ISW and make each show $10K to win and a grand to start with a sizable point fund.
