Is it safe to assume that USAC will no longer be the promoters at Dodge City?
I am glad that the Sprint cars are coming back to US36. Extremely happy that USAC and POWRi have some co-sanctioned races, and that USAC has a show at Angell Park. |

There is no Lincoln Park in PA. Maybe you're thinking about Lincoln Speedway? In Abbottstown, PA. Lincoln is a nice track, but for whatever reason the few wingless sprint races i've seen there, they've hugged the bottom come feature time. Lincoln is a great winged 410 track though.

Good question. I'm certainly disappointed, but not too surprised, to see DCRP missing from both divisions that ran there the past 2 seasons. As has been stated before on this forum, Kansas isn't exactly a hotbed of nonwing racing. Crowd support hasn't been all that good at Dodge City.

My thoughts on the schedules are this:
The midget schedule is excellent. It will allow for a guy to more than likely run USAC (dirt) and POWRi points in the same year if they choose. The only iffy thing is the move of the Hut 100. Granite City is a great track but Haubstadt was awesome the last couple years. The race will still be a must see. I love the fact that the Gold Crown is co sanctioned as well as a weekend at little belleville! The Silver Crown Schedule shows that they are trying to move in the right direction. 11 races I believe is one more than last year. The trip to the Belleville Highbanks should make for an awesome race in front of the midget nationals crowd. Looks like no Iowa Speedway this year or Toledo. However the addition of Gateway will be awesome! The move back to methanol will help in my opinion as well. The sprint car schedule looks similar to last years. I really have nothing to say about it. Overall it looks like USAC did a great job this year and is starting to listen to the fans. |

Both the "HUT100" & the Gold Crown Midget Nationals will be co-sanctioned USAC/POWRi for 2013!
Thanks, Kevin |

Disappointed the July $10,000 to-win event at Eldora is not on the schedule. That was a good show last year and was hoping that event would grow, but after seeing the truck race on the previous Wed., I guess it was too much. Other than that, looks like a good sprint schedule, the other two divisions lost my interest five years ago.

The only plus I see about the midget schedule is the two day Kokomo show in April and good luck hitting the weather just right for that. Otherwise, the schedule has gone nowhere for years. It used to be that the midget schedule was separate from the other divisions, that is, a midget race would be scheduled somewhere in the country while a sprint car show would also be held at another venue. For example, they ran a 100 lap midget event on Labor Day in Columbus, Ohio while the champ cars were racing at the same time at DuQuoin. The midgets are odd man out. If the HUT 100 is going to dance around from track to track, I'd rather see it at Kokomo. The new venue is a big track... 100 laps on an engine there? I guess it won't matter for those that get free engines.
