They'll get anywhere from 18-25 cars. There will be some 360s thrown in there as well. You should see a McCarl or two, Lynton Jeffrey, Gregg Bakker. If Logan Forler is still around, I'd think he would show up, Jody Rosenboom (hometown track), mostly Jackson and Sioux Falls cars...........

Is that what your crystal ball is telling you?
I bet that there will be more than 6 410's racing.

TMAC's website is showing him running the IRA show that night. Brian Brown doesn't have anything listed for that night. Mark Dobmeier is running in North Dakota. Lynton Jeffery doesn't have a website. Other than the locals, I can't think of anyway that would make it to the race. If they do get 30 cars, I would have to agree the vast majority will be 360's. I'm interested in going, but want to see 410's a good field of cars.
Why don't they get the race sanctioned by someone? Even if it was a 360 ASCS regional race, I would be more inclined to go just because I would know better what to expect.
Does the race offer a good purse to draw guys from a distance like Brian Brown?

If I remember right it paid either $2500 or $3k to win with a pretty decent pay back. Brown was there for at least one of the races last year, maybe 2.
I wouldn't let the supposed lack of 410's keep you from going. Its a nice track with good racing and its small enough a good 360 can be competitive.
All in all its a pretty good show that is much better run than the "professionals" to the northwest.
I'd also be kinda surprised if the McCarls weren't there. They won 2 of the 3 410 races held last year.
Edited because my compass was apparently broken.

$2500 to win, $400 to start. It's on the NMRA message board.
Last year the Sprint cars could run any brand/durameter of tire. Don't know if that's the same this year or not.
