Speedchannel has carried that race in the past. Wonder if they, or anyone, will?

Dwight,

Do you know why Richie dropped off the SC circuit? I thought his dirt car matched pretty well lookswise with the new pavement cars.

Rich Tobias has been manufacturing a new line of race car in Pennslyvania called a "Slingshot". They have been running indoors at Atlantic City, NJ, and outdoors at tracks in Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Minnesota. It is a growing company that has a website at:

The Rumble In Ft. Wayne promoter Tony Barhorst and Rich Tobias have an agreement to have the Slingshots run at the Indoor Races at The Memorial Coliseum Expo Center on Dec. 28 and 29, 2007. We look forward to it.

One of the greatest races I have ever witnessed was when Tobias won the Ted Horn 100 a few years back. Awsome!

Where have they raced in Indiana? I haven't seen them run and they look pretty cool. Do they run pavement or dirt or both?
