Vegas Indy West?

I'm hoping this will be a positive post....how about NHRA promote and have a "Indy West"? Vegas would be the best choice? Schedule it instead of the Jeg's race? NHRA could put up some tents for "the barn". I've been to Indy a couple of times and absolutely loved every second of the "big go", however the 2 weeks away from work, and family sucks. Attract some more cars from the east. Class racing would benefit?

If there was more support for the Sportsnats at Vegas, wouldn't that do the same thing? Class eliminations are at that race.

Maybe we could have our own West coast A/B Auto, Stick shootout at Vegas. Anyone interested?

Great idea Chris! Sounds like fun. If you want to tackle the organization of that I will start it off with a little sponsorship money?

Vegas national already has class eliminations for both stock and super stock. Don't mess with my Vegas race. I don't go to Indy so I can go and enjoy Vegas. Stay for the national and the division and have a great time at the SEMA show in between.
