26 cars pre-registered. No DD
Have we reached the Month of Money saturation point?
Have some given up on trying to beat the house ?

We will see how many show up. I posted here from the beginning if everyone decided that they were not going to be running for the big money car counts would fall. And also as you said Month of Money saturation point.

How many cars do you all consider enough? 26 isn't that bad. Preferred? No, but they kinda booked a week where the Allstars, who usually support this series heavily, are a ways away the next night. Add in the current PA turmoil and this is what happens. Only so many drivers and they can't be everywhere at once. It'll be fine

Another thing is that there has been several Allstar teams running these races and with them in the Mid West any who are not high in the points won't tow in here for one race and then back out.

Yep and from the sounds of it the Rudeen 26 sent a trailer and a car east to PA and the normal rig to Missouri for their Allstar race so he could fly back and forth to run both. Wow. So with him and DD were already at 28 I think. It'll be 25-35 cars and a good show. Should be over well before I go to bed so that's nice.

They have to be hoping for more than 26 in what is considered pretty close to a sprint car hotbed. But I'm sure equipment is getting thin. Even Marks is taking a break after this race to refresh.

DD just tweeted that he's not running the Gass 48 anymore but will be there in his normal 48. He is done with high limit after tonight with the except of possibly a race in October.

Lakeside - 56
34 - 51
Wayne County - 56
Tri-City - 32
Eagle - 41
26-28 is enough for a full field and that's all you need - but it's short

That takes away Macri and Wise I'd think.

Technically in the "good ol days" they ran 18-20 car A mains so by that standard it's more than enough. Haha

So, did the fat lady just grab a box of popcorn, or, is she warming up?

Wise leads the Allstar points and Macri committed to helping the 7bc team win the owner points.

Macri was supposed to run the Indy Race Parts 71 at Grandview, but that'll be Kyle Reinhardt now.
Jake Swanson was supposed to be in Bowman's 55, but that'll be Schuerenberg now.
So those two cars will still be there.
Rudeen car? No idea yet.
