Ump fall nationals!!!
Why not bring it back to Eldora and make it what it once was? Saturday Night Sunday Afternoon. No Entry Fees Super Lates 10,000 to win and 500 to start and UMP Modifieds 5,000 to win 300 to start. All cars not making a feature get $100 in both classes. You would get the normal 110 modifieds and maybe 40 super lates.

I bet the World 100 reschedule put a dent in the car count.

Its amazing people think these tracks make all this money to pay out in purses! The only tracks making that kind of money to pay out like that is Eldora! Eldora is not interested in paying decent money for anything but their crown jewels, Tony cut the purse in half when he took over! Back in the day the 4 crown national used to pay ten thousand a piece for USAC silver crown, sprints , midgets and late models, and if you won all 4 you got a ten thousand dollar bonus. many years later, no late models and silver crown pays 6000, sprints, midgets and all star wings pays 5000 a piece and the price to get in is higher than ever!

So did the 2 day/5,000 to win format.
I’ll file this under the.... “what were they thinking?” format.

And that was 15 years ago. This race attracted cars from all over the Midwest. Was never a 2 day show back then.

HH, when was it not a two day show? 90's?

I dont think you had to be there 2 days, they had either region or state races for bragging rights on friday night! I think if you moved the race to Oakshade or Waynesfield, it would be a win ,win! And yes Oakshade sucked for the summernationals this year, but usually its pretty racey. Plenty of stands and pit area, great food and the worst bathrooms in the country!

Jason Feger had a Facebook post about it a while back. The entry fee was real high especially for a 2 day $5k to win. Don’t remember the amount he quoted. It was just his perspective.

Actually the original format was Saturday Night Sunday afternoon. On Saturday they had tech at 9a.m. and pit gates opened at 8a.m. Hotlaps was at 3:30p.m. followed by single car qualifying and heat races. Sunday at 1p.m. was states races for states champions, chassis races for the leading drivers in the chassis brands and then consolation races and the 2 features. Also there were no entry fees. The thing is if Eldora wanted to make it a big hit you would run it 2nd weekend in October on Saturday and Sunday like it used to be. Also you would make the payout 10,000 to win for super lates and 5,000 to win for mods and keep the 2 day grandstand price at $20 and 2 day pit pass at $40.
