Seems like car counts are hurting everywhere. Hope tracks survive all this.

Given the fact that we're almost in August, it's probably to be expected. It's that time of the summer when money and enthusiasm usually take a hit.

Also, what do these numbers represent?

35-30-25-25-23-27-27-25-23-26-34

and

29-28-28-23-20-24-30-26-27-29-41

The top row are the counts for Knoxville's 410's on a standard point night. The bottom row are for the 360's. This is from a state that has a zillion sprint cars in the region. Simply boils down to economics. The 41 car count shown for the 360's is high since it was the last tune-up for the 360 National's that start this week.

Like the roller coaster numbers we all see on the marquee signs at our local gas stations, sprint car numbers are going up and down. Track promoters know this all to well. In the end, they look at their bottom line as to how well a show does. When they book multiple events a season or rebook a series that same season after having them make a previous stop, that's the ultimate sign they are pleased on how they fared.

It was great to see you at Oklahoma Sports Park Saturday Kenny. Hope you can make 1 or 2 more before you get really busy for the fall. Im sure riding in the air conditioned "Bob Hurley Auto Family" pace truck took its toll out on you wink
