I do not. Only thing I'd heard was Rico was planning on it and they raised the purse to $5000 to win now.
With teams headed home from Belleville I would guess they may get all the Kunz Midgets for that purse.

They put out a press release a week or two ago saying that this will basically be a no rules, open midget race. Run what you brung, open engine, tire soaking, outlaw style. Should be interesting. I'm just planning on buying my tickets at the gate, but I'm planning on getting there early to get a seat up high since the stands look pretty small from pictures I've seen.

I, for one, hope Robert cuts a fat hog on this night... If anyone deserves a little bigger piece of the pie, its robert.
Rossie Feed and Grain and 212 Boiling Point lounge in Brandon as sponsors adds legitimacy to this race for me.. Cant wait..

Tim St. Arnold (former 360 driver at Knoxville and resident of Indianola, is helping Robert promote this event it appears as well.
My hope if for sold our Grandstands and a great show.
On my way home from the races last Saturday night they talked bout the next 3 weeks of racing and mentioned the event for everyone as well.
When USAC was in Knoxville in June, Robert got one of the largest ovations from the crowd.

Help pass the word around those of you attending the full week at Knoxville, Help Robert make this a bid success.
I hope it works out for him.
