Hoping to see around 40 winged and 30 non winged this weekend at Eldora.... With the forecast looking horrible for the Iowa and Nebraska, anyone think we could see some of the NSL guys make their way to the Big E ?

From what I just seen It's 40% both days. Friday was just bumped up from 20% but Saturday came down from 60% Monday. Still could change for the better.

Those numbers sound reasonable to me too.
Does anybody know how many full-time teams are traveling with the Outlaws this year?

this morning on the news they said dry in Iowa for Saturday, don't see too many Kville locals or NSL guys driving to the Big E myself, but you never know.

Just a 30% chance for Eagle Raceway Friday. The percentage has been dropping all week, so it may end up zero by Friday.
Bring on the NSL!!!!
I am lucky enough to work at one of the best tracks
anywhere.

I doubt they will get more than 40, last year this show was in the low 30's and that included Marks and Wolfe. There may be a couple more this year because of the increase in the All-Stars and their connection to Stewart, but with NSL this weekend I don't think you should expect a huge increase. Still a full and competitive field, just remember they have a hard time getting a huge field even for Kings Royal anymore.
USAC will be interesting, their counts at Eldora, even for 4 Crown has been spotty, but I think they will at least get a full field.

By the way the Kings Royal had 47 Cars last year. Pretty full field if you ask me.

Since Rico will be there, will he run both classes?? And you have to say he has a chance to win both if he does race both. Maybe if this weekend is successful, they think about maybe adding a bonus to a guy that could win both.

Just checked the Nat Weather Service site....looks like ps for fri, 30 % for Sat. Eldora does a great job of getting their shows in if possible. Safe travels to everyone especially you guys driving the big distances.

Haven't been to an Outlaw show for several years, but $25 GA per night sounds pretty reasonable for a combined WoO/USAC show.
