A friend and myself are planning a trip from Knoxville to PA to visit the tracks there. WG, etc. I know a couple run Fridays and a Couple run Saturdays. Is there others where we can catch 3 or 4 races in a week. I thought they could all run a few times a week without going to far. Sundays, Mid-Week. Would appreciate any help in our scheduling.
My wife told me if I went to one more Sprint Car race
she would leave me.................I'm sure gonna miss
that ol' gal.

Are you looking to make a trip this year yet? A lot of the midweek and Sunday shows are winding down because it is almost August. If you looking to hit as many different tracks as possible, the time to do it is Pennsylvania Speedweek in late June/early July. Most of the special off night 410 shows at places like Hagerstown, Grandview, Big Diamond, Susquehanna, Selinsgrove, Bedford, Bridgeport, etc. are winding down because it is getting late in the season.
Williams Grove runs Fridays with 410s and 358 most weeks. Trailway runs Fridays with 358s. Lincoln and Port Royal both run Saturdays with 410s. The support class at Lincoln is normally 358 Sprints, while it is Super Late Models at Port Royal. Selinsgrove runs Saturdays with 358s and Super Late Models.
That schedule always changes somewhat late in the year because Williams Grove doesn't run against Port Royal's Friday/Saturday Tuscarora 50 shows in early September and none of the 410 tracks run against Selinsgrove's National Open for 410s in mid September.
Lanor Day weekend offers the chance to see four straight nights/days of 410 racing, although Labor Day afternoon racing at Port Royal is almost always the pits.

www.selinsgrovespeedway.com
Look on the left side of the page and click on "driver &racing links"
That will get you to all the tracks to check schedules. IMO you have to go to the Grove on a friday night and Saturday is wide open. Port and Lincoln run 410's and Selinsgrove has a good show with 358's. I'd recommend coming the weekend Selinsgrove has the 410 Nace Memorial race.
Hope this helps.

Sorry, I should have stated we are planning for next Summer. Thanks. Doesn't anyone run Sunday nights or are the other races in the special Speedweeks shows? Thanks for all the help.

No local track races 410s weekly on Sundays anymore. Susquehanna and Selinsgrove both used to race 410s on Sunday nights regularly, but neither do anymore. That being said, there are often tracks that will jump on open Sundays to run special 410 shows. There are lots of Sunday and midweek shows at non-traditional 410 tracks beyond the PA Speedweek dates, but Pennsylvania Speedweek is your best opportunity to see many different tracks night after night. You would just have to check the schedules to see what is going on with any particular Sunday outside of Speedweek
