118 cars entered for classic and most yanks entered for a few years with Brad sweet, Sheldon haudenschild, Sunshine, macedo brothers, Justin sanders,chase randall, Brock zearfoss, Cory eilason.
Should be some good hard racing with a change of format with the tyre shortage

Not sure if Brad and Sheldon are coming over,I see there was complaints about Premier Speedway the racing was becoming one lane follow the leader type racing lately so the whole track has been ripped up and relayed to try and get some grip back into the track for the Classic, good to see a track listening to the drivers and fans🙂

The Classic is possible the best sprintcar meeting to go to.
Last time I went there were more than 20 american drivers with 120+ cars in total
Well run event, especially with the fan appreciation day.
Great racing, 10 second laps.
Not quite the atmosphere and occasion of the Knoxville Nationals but the racing is better being a 1/4 mile compared to a 1/2 mile.

Track cut up in middle of 1 and 2 and in 3. But the brave could still get it done. Looks a hard joint to pass on. Big crowd, full when we arrived at 5.15 |
