61 races and not to many two day shows out in Calif.

It makes it hard to make a one day show that is 420 miles round trip. It's hard to justify the cost for a one day show.

This is not sure going to be easy on the teams and travel expenses way up. 2 trips to the west coast, from March 13 till May 10 they are west of the Mississippi away from pretty much everyones home base, lots of hotels and fuel bills. Going to be interesting.

Well it's just a little west coast playground for the little Cali-amigos 

I looked at the scheduled and pretty much thought the same unfortunately. Didn't make me super excited for 2025 with zero high limit races in Iowa.

If High Limit primarily runs out west and  abit of midwest and WOOO takes midwest and eastern then this would be fine by me

They can only bomb at 34 Raceway so many times.

Close to a third of the races are "out west", most of the teams are east coast based. Travels twice to the left coast. 61 races plus the WoO premier events puts them around 75 races. Are they going to be racing for more money? Have a few rainouts might have a light schedule for drivers to make a living. Also only 3 places being paid in mid week point fund, 

It's almost like they are tied down to a regimented somewhat grueling schedule, on the road for weeks/ months at a time while chasing a charter on a stick. Give them their freedom & liberty back!!.   

I heard the pit lizards that follow HL are lower tier as well. 

Those west coast races are hard to watch for people in the east. Sometimes turn it on after getting home from a Saturday night race. Contrary to what some think streaming was not going to make some of shows pay with the dismal crowds that they had. With all the west coast races and being in attendance at over ten percent of the races in Pa. makes me wonder about the value of Flo.

I get it. So many other tracks though across the state. Probably none willing to take the risk. 

Surprised that I-70 wasn't on the schedule.   Since I-70 is a special events track only, it is needing inventory.   I am also interested in seeing how the new track layout races.   The old configuration was just too fast for good racing. 

Davenport Speedway fans got to watch hot laps before it rained out.

I stay up almost every Saturday night to watch the 410 races on the west coast.  Looked to me like most of the NARC and HL shows out there had good crowds.

Two 3 night stands at Port Royal....I wonder how "a certain somebody" is gonna react....

But what caught my eye was PATH VALLEY!!!

I'm a World of Outlaw guy.  

But this is a really cool schedule through the first third of the season. 

I'm like most others that will barely be awake by the time the feature starts.

I understand that the HL series is trying to be different schedule wise.

I hate that they are going to force everyone around the country to adjust to their rules to beat them when they show up to their home town. 

Adjustable shocks, tire pressures, etc.
