That's tough to predict because it always depends on what other shows are happening, weather, etc. but they usually get a good car count and I've never been disappointed by the show the supers put on there.

Port royal and Selinsgrove both running supers that night so I wouldnt count on cars from there that are running for points at those places.

Thanks guys. I'm trying to decide what would be a better show . hesston or port Royal. I'm more of a sprint car guy but I have been to port in the past a few times so I was considering hesston since I have never been there

Did anyone notice this on their website?  It basically says they can cut the purse except for first place if they don't have a full field.  I think they only had about 20 supers for their $3,000 races last year.

In today's racing. Promotors can't be losing money. It's unfortunate, but understandable. I think a lot of these track operator's are working on pretty tight budgets.

At $36 to get in the pits and $20 to get in the stands for a regular show is ridiculous. Now for this weekend they made the opener $28 and $15 which is a little more reasonable. Hopefully they realize that's a better plan. $36 and $20 is regional $5000 show money.
