Indy is not going to have class and has the allstars there now as well, with losing chicago. The pros will only run on Saturday and Sunday.

Schedule should look something to this variety:
Thurs - Qualifying
Friday - Allstars and National Elims (not sure how they are going to pull this off exactly)
Sat - More elims for National Event
Sun - Final Elims.

I would expect lowered quotas than normal, but cannot confirm that obviously.

Still not telling us the Lucus Oil Sportsmen schedule.

[Robert McCoy]

There will be CLASS @ Indy. Stock & SS. Just asked on the Live update with Brian Lohnes & Phil Burgess.

[John DiBartolomeo]

With no disrespect, but what I think most people are missing are the most important four words on the release: Schedule subject to change. That about says it all!

[james schaechter]

I don’t see class anywhere here....
