    There's no magic in running Friday or any other night.

    VCS needs to go to specials only for a few years. Run 4 shows a year and run them well ( that's the key). After they've proven they can run specials well, they might have a shot at running a successful weekly show.

        The classes would somewhat depend on whether the end game was to run weekly or just stick to specials.
        I'd resist the urge to run more than 4 shows.
        I'd be looking at Sunday night of Memorial Day weekend, 2, maybe 3 classes.
        Then a Sunday night non-wing sprint and midget show.
        A Thursday night LM and mod show in late July.
        Then wrap things up with a Sunday night of Labor Day weekend show with 2 or 3 classes.

          I think a powrI show would be a good fit for them if we're talking specials here.

            Here's the deal. Debate is over. It's going to be Friday nights. VCS still has yet to post their 2016 schedule. What's up with that. The bad part now is that most everyone else has their 2016 Schedule out including SPECIALS! This puts VCS behind the 8 Ball when it comes to pulling any kind of car count around the 3 day weekend special. Example: Someone in this thread suggested hosting a Power I race. Folks, Power I posted their schedule weeks ago. My point is that it is too late to be talking about hosting SPECIALS or talking to other sanctioning bodies such as Power I, USAC, MOWA, MSCS, Hell Tour, AMS, and all other related UMP Series have locked in their schedules for 2016. Darrell will have to get real creative in planning specials at this point.

            Some of the best racing in the area has been at VCS. I would have loved to see some kind of Sprint Car Series back at VCS. MSCS would have been a good fit for VCS because of their geography and history with Sprint Cars. But now they will have to wait another year and hope they gain the attention of these sanctioning bodies somehow.
