The world is always weekend after labor day. So that should be right. I wanna get out there sometime, don't know when that will be though.

That's early for Knoxville. Shouldn't be any over-scheduling since its that early in the monh of 9

[waaac77]

Time will tell. I figure they'll just switch weekends with the shows. I don't see them dropping the Jackson though.

Per dod, Jackson 100 moved to week after Knoxville. Sept 23-24

WOO Sprint Cars will be at Deer Creek that night. Still will take fans away from Knoxville.

Are you high?

35 bucks for 25 cars..... You would probably b!tch about that.

[Crossbones]

I bet $1,000 there won't be a late model nationals next year, nor a sprint car nationals. I'm getting bad vibes about the world right now.lol

[zyoung25]

I think we should start calling him....TUTY FRUTY :D

Ya, Deer Creek only gets 7000 or 8000 fans for that show. It's there biggest Grandstand filler of the year and they have to have standing room only for this event every year.

Yea..... No (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word). Same thing with every track in the country that hosts the outlaws one time a year.

[BadlandsBandit12]

Sprint car fans have their own breed Tuty, this will not hurt the late model deal at all. I am just hoping I can see the Jamboree. sucked that I had to miss it this year.

Gotta admit sadly, TUTY has a good point... Yes Sprint car fans are their own breed, but they are indeed race fans that may have shown up at a Late Model show in Knoxville..... Not anymore.

Car/fan count is likely to go down a ton next year, if the 2016 schedule is pretty much the same at other fairly local tracks... You have the Wissota 100, the Legendary 100 at Cedar Lake, The WoO Sprints at Deer Creek, The WoO Late Models in Michigan, plus Mars, Corn Belt, ALMS, Deery Brothers, USMTS, Etc, all having events that same weekend.

All this wrapped up one weekend after a huge chunk of Late Model fans have used a large part of their spending cash at the World 100.

I will be at both Eldora and Knoxville, but changing the date does indeed seem really risky...

Over half of the crowd I travel with say they will only be able to attend one of the two weekends, and these are DIE HARD Late Model fans.... Now they have to choose.

It is way to early to tell if this is a bad move. USMTS won't have a race. More than likely Deery Brothers and CBC will likely move there dates. If Richards runs WoO like everybody says on here he does. Then WoO will likely move its date.

Mars has a race conflicting with every other big race in the area except the SDN and Show Me. They are gonna do what they want.

[TUTY]

Knoxville doesn't even have a promoter right now I don't think. Ralph ran this for many years and made moves based on research and investigating situations. No one is doing it right now, like I said they are airegant and think they can just move it and there good. Do you think Lucas cares if Woo Drivers or Mars cars show up, NO. If it works out this way next year and there's 48 cars and only 10 cars in the C-Main and less fans people will not be happy.

[huskerdirt]

Mars had two guys chase points all year. Even if they didn't schedule against Knoxville. You might get one of them.

[Clayton_Wetter]

so where will they schedule the jacksopn 100 at brownstown?

Probably in a desert!!!

[TUTY]

It's called options.
