I expect approximately 40 cars, mid to high 30s for sure.

For $10,000 to win will get the best of the best, however the also ran guys will go elsewhere or stay at home because they know that they could not make it into the feature race. So I'll say 30 good sprint cars will be a plenty for a great show.

It bothers me to hear things like “…the best of the best…” or “…the cars and stars…” Race tracks wouldn’t be successful without ALL drivers showing up. Last I checked they all pay the same pit entrance fee. It’s the consistent participants that keep things going. To be called an “also ran” driver is condescending. Their families and friends sure don’t think they are “also rans”.

33 sprints. On a side note, it’s terrible getting to Bloomington from either Indy or Columbus right now. FYI
