I wonder how the races running along Highway 81 on the 25th will affect car counts. Given last year's car totals @ JMS when the USAC boys: 1.had the night off before Belleville and 2. didn't run the night before at Eagle — the 7/26 show at JMS should be a good show car-wise.

However, I hope the POWRi Midgets running alone on the 25th bring more to the first night of JMS than the paltry 19 car showing at Eagle Raceway last year when they ran under the Gateway midget series banner.

Where the new series does have some to offer, the midget field is still not so vast car counts shouldn't be a concern. It's still half a year away though.

However, in May there's a great night for open wheel fans: on Friday May 25, it's POWRi Midgets along with ASCS Midwest 360 sprints. The following night has the POWRi migets replace the late models in the weekly show.
