Based on the steel block sprints Facebook page, I wouldn’t be surprised if they get more cars for a weekly show than say Paragon, Putnamville or Lawrenceburg. In fact, almost every show I went to last year at Lawrenceburg had like 16 sprints.

I'd bet you a whole lot of $ that Paragon and LPS get more 410's than the steel blocks

Why hating on the steel block guys? Atleast they are attempting to race and put on the best show possible. Just cause they don't have 50k motors doesn't mean they don't put on a good shoe. It's their third year. Takes time to build a series. Especially in today's economy. Give them a chance and you might just be surprised. Jmo

In 2022, from what I can find on RacePass, they had 11 shows spread at 3 tracks. The average car count was under 13. The season high to start a feature was 17 at Paragon on September 14. The low car count was 8 on April 30 at Paragon. They had 18 sign in at Paragon on June 4th, but only 14 cars started the feature. I imagine they will get a strong car count at their Gas City show this year since it is a co-sanctioned event with a group out of Wisconsin or Minnesota. Outside of the Gas City special I am not sure they will ever be a threat to run a B-Main. |

They run mostly at Wilmot Wisconsin WingLESS Sprints - 604 Crate Non-Wing They get Mid 30 to high 30’s for car count when they race at Wilmot Been there a few times just about 90 miles from my house here in Northwest Indiana. They put on a good show.

Ok Race Fans, Need some updated info.
The USAC website Sprint schedule shows event info after each event except for Circle city on Thursday May 25th? Have they just not replaced or deleted them yet? I had planned to go along with my normal 500 week racing (THAT -Wed, Circle-Thur, IRP-Fri,LIL500-Sat & KOKO- Sun). Not sure if I can cancel the room or just eat it and go bet the ponies in Shelbyville?
