The last time both races ran in 2018 the car counts were the same.

Was this not on the Lucas schedule originally? Should be a good 3 day swing tho. Jackson Motorplex is phenomenal

No. If you look at the original press release of the schedule it's not listed. It is now on thier master schedule. July 9th.
Here's the original press release

Two nights at Jackson and a single event at Deer Creek. For a mid summer road trip can’t have a much better option in my opinion.

For race fans, you won't get two better facilities and racing surfaces than Deer Creek and Jackson. This is going to be an incredible swing in this area and ANY FAN making the trip won't be disappointed.

With the two-day Jackson event... the move to Lucas Oil was a no-brainer for Deer Creek. With the WoO Sprints off Deer Creek's calendar for the past few years... the writing was on the wall that this switch (to Lucas from WoO) was going to happen. WoO loses another great race and track off their schedule.

They already have a Lucas date in May. Now they have two.

This also brings back NAPA sponsorship to the Gopher 50
