But in a grandstand that size 5 thousand people is a drop in the bucket and I was told that's why non wings have been invited back
Not trying to stir too many pots here, as Iowa fans love their racing but when I've visited Iowa they've believed that the Silver Crown cars were non-wing sprinters. Some also thought USAC was a Winged sanctioning body. The weekly shows at Knoxville get decent crowds in comparison to the grandstand size, but not enough to warrant an Indiana based series for a regular show.
Now....would I travel there to Crown, Sprints and Midgets together during the 1-2-3 day show? Absolutely
I doubt the NSL has come up with a schedule yet. Knoxville is the staple venue of that series so I'm sure once their schedule is released you will see it on there.
