Knight Before? Also super cool. So glad I made the cross country trip. Getting to chat with so many interesting folks. Too many stories to tell. Will do my best after returning home next week.
The biggie tomorrow!

50-50 winner takes home more than 1st & 2nd place cars combined at the night before. With the crowd they get all 3 nights could pay $50K.
And its a travesty that a race at eldora can be won on the bottom.

I've been to Knoxville 4 times, and Eldora twice. So limited experience for sure. However, in those few visit I'd say the atmosphere is fantastic at both events. Knoxville is and always will be the biggest and most prestigous sprint car event in the world. I base some of that on my experience, but most of that on what the drivers say. The Nationals is far and away a bigger deal. The KR is absolutely unchallenged for second. And I'd even say the racing surface (speeds, high banks, massive sliders, wide track) is better at Eldora, but you just can't beat the Nationals man. Beyond those two, there is a huge gap to third, and probably a handful of really good events that would tie for that last spot on the sprintcar world podium.
