    What happened to the $10,000 at Fremont since the feature was rained out. I also thought that the driver redraw could have been eliminated since they knew the rain was coming.

      I was wondering that as well.

      Makeup feature 6/29 at Fremont when FAST is there for another show. Drivers who couldn’t return were given start money.
      They also got minimum a main points if they made the A for speedweek so that was factored into points.

      @@jdsmith5900 Since the makeup feature is going to be held on 6-29 are they going to honor my raincheck? I paid to see the main event which didn't happen! My Grandson and I paid so we could enter the pits. We had to sign are names on the sign-up sheet so they do have a record that we were there!

    Unfortunately, the only race I attended was the Fremont Race. I saw a lot of good racing but I thought the officials did not manage the timing well even though they knew the rain was coming. We only got in three laps of the feature. They could have skipped the driver redraw on the front stretch with interviews. I watched the rest of the races on Flo and DirtVision. I was very happy with what I saw.

    Went to all 9 races and had a blast. Almost all of the events had good crowds even on weekdays. The sprint features were done by 11 on all races but one.
    A fun variety of tracks and drivers, really was cool to see a local contingent travel around the state and race.

    Car count is very important , but for success you need to comment on attendance at the tracks ... and not sure that figure is available

      I agree. Obviously I don’t have access to those numbers but I can confirm there was well over 3-4000 people at Millstream. Other nights didn’t look good on Flo

      I'm sure if you contacted each track, they would give you an approximate attendance for the sppedweek nights. Not only would it help out with statistics but would be a great way to entice more or new advertisements dollars to next years ohio speedweek. I was at WCS it was about 80% to 85% full in the stands. It definitely wasn't like in years past with the Allstars. But without the big names you'll have that. It gave other guys opportunities to stand and show what they have.

      I was at Attica and Fremont they were not as full as All Star Speedweeks. Millstream could of been running 4 clys and they would of been full. There was alot of anticipation about it reopening.
