wished late models nationals would be moved back to October.
I agree 100%! It sucks that it’s so close to the World 100Quote:

We have been going for about the last 10 years. When we first started going it was in October and it was coooold. I believe it would probably help car count, but the weather is so much nicer in September. Either way it's always a great show and I think the Malvern Bank Late Models put on a hell os a show this year. Glad to see they are coming back!
I'd love to go. But it being so close to the world pretty much wipes out any chance I ever have of going, because it's either one or the other.
I think the move up and improved weather is more important to the fan count that how close it is to the World. This year was once again a record crowd.
Yeah, we are a long ways from Eldora. Sure, there are some overlapping hardcore fans, but I think there are enough fans around here to support it.
It’s not the distance....it’s getting time off work lolQuote:

Racing in October in Iowa just doesn't make sense. I've been to races in September where the temps were in the 30s at night.
I see a lot of you don't like the October thing. I was thinking first weekend of October would be great, weather is usually pretty good at that time, there are still some pretty nice days in October. I don't like it because it is back to back with World 100 and you will miss some top notch drivers because of it. Marlar is a good example.
