We have been waiting for some sort of response. With PowerI bowing out many did not expect to see anything develop. Sure hope you get a record crowd.
This could be the start for a perfect Mini Sprint Chili Bowl type race.
With a super purse I can see a bunch of racers making the haul to DuQuoin. For those who have not raced there it is like a mini Tulsa. Good clay plenty of bank enough room to pass and real fast and fun.
I'm coaching a basketball game that Friday night so it looks like we won't debut our new car there which kind of stinks. Might drive out and watch the show on Saturday however. It's a great purse and an opportunity to build on for the future so I hope they get a bunch of cars and put on a great show so that we can go back.
If you click on the link in the original post, it has more info. Friday is a practice day, Saturday is for heats and B-mains, and A-mains kick off at 11am on Sunday.
