I’m interested too. I haven't been to Farmington in ten years but I plan on going this Saturday. Trouble is, lots going on this weekend: IRA is at Dodge Co. (reading that McCarl and Ian Madsen will be up there) and ASCS is at Wheatland MO. 410 races happening Saturday in OH (Atomic and Fremont) and MI (WoO) as well. It’s looking to me like it’ll be just the Farmington regulars plus some MOWA runners which is just fine. I'd still anticipate 30-35 cars.

That's my thoughts also, alot of other racing going on around the country, Most of the MOWA guys will probably be here(Hull, Bruns, Hurley), plus all the Farmington regulars. Hopefully get some others coming from outside the area too.

Haven't been there in a while either. Always good racing with the locals being very tough to beat. It's good in the aspect there are lots of other 410 racing going on, but will probably take away a few "names" that might otherwise be at Farmington. Either way the "names" usually find it hard to win there. Enjoy your race and please post the results!

It is a shame that they can't seem to get the MOWA cars and the Farmington cars on any of the local tracks at the same time. The MOWA cars have a lot of off weekends but they rarely run Farmington (or any where) and there is very little purse difference. The Farmington cars never really run any of the local MOWA races. If they could get together the 2 groups could easily put 50 cars on the track without any outside cars coming in. Both groups put on good shows and the talent mix is equal. With that said the added purse and good weather forecast this week will likely draw most of the top MOWA cars.

The race should have been a MOWA points race, would for sure had alot more of those guys come down. Sucks that there is so many other races going on this weekend too. Maybe should push the race date back acouple weeks next year, may help draw more cars.

Whatever the deal is with MOWA and St. Francois County is, it's silly if you asked me... the Queen's Royale easily should be a MOWA sanctioned event

I'm assuming that SFCR doesn't thinks its advantageous to pay the MOWA sanction fee. That and they run different RR tires. Next year it'll be different top wing rules as well I think. They also use different formats to run their shows. So whose rules are they going to use? But yes I agree that the two really should get together. SFCR is the only weekly 410 track in the area. The two could work together and have some good events throughout the year that undoubtedly would draw good crowds.

Agree - I just think that with some humility and flexing on both parties part, everyone could get a bigger win
