considering 3 of the young 305 drivers have basically announced they are running 360s, I assume that's not happening.
Also figure in the McKenna is probably the biggest draw in Sprint Car racing, at a local level for sure, and quite possibly more than any other non-outlaw...and tweeted that last saturday would be her final 305 race...i'd keep my 360 program and keep her at my hometrack as long as possible

In the pits after the races Saturday night she said she would be racing a 360 next year.
Based off of the size of the line of kids and parents waiting to talk to her, Knoxville would be crazy to do anything to turn her towards another track.
I didn't see a single other driver (in any class) with that many people standing in line to talk to them/get autographs.

Between the hall of fame, front stretch suites and grandstands I'd guess Knoxville was getting more like 3-4,000 people weekly.
Just a guess. I only missed a handful of weeks.

Has anyone else heard they are dropping 360s from the program next year?

We hear this BS every year. I think I first heard it in 1989

Attica is done this weekend. They have always been done at Labor Day and have always said high school was the reason. In Ohio (I know it's not Iowa) you cannot compete with High School football. Saturday's are filled with college football and not just Ohio State. I would guess you could have at least a dozen college games on any given Saturday.
