Hi - I have answers for some of the questions...
- All classes will be running on the 10th and 17th.
- The November 6th wingless show will be for 270's and 600's. There will not be winged races for either of them that evening.
Friday Times: Warm-ups at 7 and Racing at 7:30
Saturday Times: Warm-ups at 5:30 and Racing at 6:00
Nationals:
- Camping is available on the 23rd and 24th. There are no water or electric hook-ups but there is plenty of room.
- The Friday night and Saturday night shows are independant of one another *except* that the Top 4 finishers from Friday night's features will be guaranteed a starting spot in Saturday's feature.
The schedule for the weekend is still being finalized, I will post more details as I get them.
Thanks!

I think Middleford Speedway pushes the racers a little too much. What do you think, these guys are suppose to run with the Nascar schedule? You start the season in March & run it until November. That is way too much on the kids, parents & the pocketbooks. The guys need a break like Delmar. They don't even race the whole month of October so they can get ready for the champ show. Every race you run is a points race up until October, so naturally the guys want to race & have to put their lives on hold only for 3 months. You need to let up some next year on the schedule. I could see if racing at Middleford was a career but it is not. Me, as a parent, want to see my child race every race, but for heavens sake, give us a break & don't run every race for points!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That way the kids & parents can get a break & maybe have a summer vacation.

Very good point day by day racer. i beleive they carry the race season at middleford way to long. my money runs out quick when you have to pay for 2 adults to get in the pit every week. they should not start racing until late april & end the season at the end of sept. once kids get back in school they have other things they need to keep their mind on instead of racing.

well maybe start the points a little later and wrap then up earlier or run less point races near the end so the kids can miss a race with out loseing points , but people who want race just to race can every week if the wish.
but I do understand the money / time on parents and the kids

The schedule has been this way for at least 3 years I'm fine with it as well as a lot of other people . If you take the points away with the limited cars now you would have less cars. Middleford leave it alone and if your saying its not NASCAR or what ever than why are you worried about points just don't come if you can't afford it ! Its hard for me every week to pay but if they added more races I would be their its just the way and most racers are sorry if you don't agree but that's just my side .
