Really this topic should be WOO and HL. This weekends race should be yuuuuge. Looks like the next HL race isn't for a couple of weeks at the Ozarks.
I'd expect to see some dignitaries from NASCAR too.
Will Larson race?

"Will Larson race?" If he does, will YungWun24 have a boner the entire weekend?

I would imagine he will. It looks like practice for Cup is at 4:30 that afternoon, so I would expect him to be there. ???
I just saw a post from Knoxville Raceway:
"Because of an anticipated high number of 410 cars this weekend, Knoxville Raceway Officials have chosen to limit 360 entries for Saturday, June 15 exclusively to teams with Knoxville 360 owner points" Many have taken to social media scorning this decision, but this is not unprecedented as other tracks have put a cap on support classes. I don't think they have a choice in this case. There have regularly been 40+ 360's on a Saturday night. The pits have a limit in capacity, and the track is going to be a challenge anyways just running that number of 410's!
I would estimate 55-65 cars running the 410 event-----if not over 65. They have had 40+ at Knoxville already this year, add in the dozen or so full-time Outlaws, and likely a large number of HL cars, minus the Knoxville regulars that decide to sit on the sidelines, and I don't think 60+ cars is far-fetched.
I'm stoked and cannot wait to head to central-Iowa in 48 hours!!

I agree this is big. I would be surprised if Larson doesn't race this weekend at Knoxville, since Nascar is in Iowa.
But then again I have been surprised before.
Let's go Sprint Car Racing!
Knoxville - Best Track In the USA!
Eldora - 2nd Best Track in the USA!

That sounds like an epic weekend in Knoxville I would be pretty excited if I was going to a show like that. I've often thought that some support divisions need to be limited in numbers and I guess Knoxville is doing the right thing for their weekly 360 teams and maybe the fans. When support divisions draw to many cars what do you do, go by invite only? Who gets the invitations? I'll go with Clint Garner to win the 360s.
