I feel anything with all the fans. The Front Row Challenge is a great fan thing when it doesn't rain... a good model to look at. As well as Girls holding up heat race signs... preferably infront of section A....lol Ummm BEER SPECIALS.... HOTDOG SPECIALS......uhhh.We will need to contain Racefan20... and Danny Burton... but extra security shouldn't be a problem

How about a night with qualifing??? But do it like the Racin' with DO Hero & Hot Dog. Everybody pays $$$ to qual and a base purse [sponsor] Fast time pays a bunch and top 3 get cash. It has nothing to do with heat races. Just a good fast time qual event. I saw this on D.O. 1994 video yesterday from the 1st Racin'-fest at Bloomington. You could here the announcers and fans screaming like Indy quals were long ago with the roadsters.

Run passing points to get cars into the feature then invert them all.

Better yet, Run it with passing points Top 16 locked 8 from the B. No Guaranteed fourth or better in the heat gets in.

Thats also a Idea you could possibly do with only one other class running, The Two heat passing points invert the first finishers in the second.

We could race a shootout style race with the top votes starting on the tail. Maybe start 10 cars. Just tossing the idea around and want to get some feedback about how IOW's would like to handle this. Its our (IOW) race night and we (IOW) will make the rules!!
Also what date would work best besides special shows for everyone.
We will not make everyone happy, but my goal is to make the majority happy.
Lets have fun with this and put on a great special race within a race.
We could make this a annual event, called the IOW Indiana All Star Race.
Thanks, Dave Rudisell
Wow Dave. Allow me to dream a bit......Knoxville has its "Masters Classic" where older drivers run modern winged 360's. How about a non-wing 410 version at your speedway. Maybe guys like Tom Bigelow, Bob Kinser, Pancho Carter, let's go nuts, A.J. Foyt, Gary Bettenhausen, Rick Ferkel, Doug Wolfgang, Mario Andretti, Mel Kenyon, Bobby Allen, Lealand McSpadden, give Doty some weeks in the car he ran years ago with the hand controls, then let him cut it loose, Jack Hewitt, maybe Ron Shuman, Shane Carson, Larry Gates, Dean Shirley, Al Thomas, how about Ricky Hood, Bubby Jones (add your favorite retired driver here). Heck, I don't even know if all of these guys are still alive or able, but what a blast it would be to see a race like that. Maybe I'm really getting whacky here, but how about we find twenty guys on this message board with businesses, contacts, or cash to donate $1,000 ea, to generate $20,000. Put $10K on the regular feature (this will bring the cars for the older guys to run), and $10K on the retirees race (50% to driver and 50% to car owner). Crazy huh? You're the promoter Dave. I imagine this would be a lot more work than you might have intended for IOW night, but I've never been to Lawrenceburg, IN. This would get me there.
