The IRA show at Beaver Dam. MidWestStars-IRA show or just IRA show? I'm confused.

Here is the explination from the IRA Forum
Additionally regarding the Midwest All-Stars. The Midwest All-Stars requested to the promoter of this and 4 other shows if they could support the event to add to their schedule as they struggled with finding dates in their core region in the early part of the season and are trying to keep 410 racing alive in their market. These dates were all IRA scheduled events from the beginning, the Midwest All-Stars were added in a support role and to give fans a chance to see a few different regional drivers. I was made known of this from the promoter months ago and our teams told about it at our Jan membership meeting. I have conversed with All-Star management. There is absolutely no issue, all has been discussed with event promoters and All-Star management. Our rules dictate and the All-Star teams that have made the long tow to come up have all been totally respectful and great to work with and I absolutely hope they feel the same regarding how they were treated by us. These racers just wanna race. The All-Stars had planned on sending their series represenative to the event however he unfortunately checked himself in at a hospital emergency room after feeling ill on Thursday and remains in a IL hospital as of this writing. Jerrod Hull, the Bruns brothers, and WI resident Adam Miller who now lives in IN were the All-Star participants, and Jim Moughan and Mike Hess could be considered in that catagory too. All have run with IRA numerous times over the years. Congrats to all who competed last night, one heckuva race night with plenty of action. Special thanks to the IRA core teams. You guys are a special bunch and I couldn't be more proud of what we have put together here. We in this area are extremely fortunate to have we do. Thanks to all that supported our event, and to the Beaver Dam Raceway crew for succesfully fighting the winds, tires were a non-isssue.

There is a reason there is no dates down this way and Jacksonville,IL and Farmington,MO are smart enough to no why! I hope you enjoy the couple of cars that came up.

Wow!
Field fillers. Last I checked the 12 car was top 5 car and the 1 MX had a bad night (and Logan, but he isn't an Midwest All Star). I don't think they are field fillers. Can't talk to the other couple of traveling cars that made the feature, they may have been Midwest All Stars. I have been at plenty of IRA races where most of those guys spanked the IRA regulars.
You have to take the Midwest All Star series for what it is, a regional series that is young. The IRA didn't get a lot of regular support when they used to go to Attica and they get half the regulars when in IA.
Like I said before, except for the 360 issue (which Steve explained), sounded like it was a good 'ol best car wins race, which is the way it should be.
