They've built a temporary dirt track to bring in the World of Outlaws. They've built a permanent off-road course that will debut in October. They work at making racing work at Heartland Park. But a lot of the time, if the weather's bad, all the work in the world doesn't matter. That's why it's so cool that it's so warm and partly cloudy this weekend.
Drivers like to come to Topeka.
They're celebrities when they're here, and the track is fast. They appreciate that it came together this weekend, too. Some races they had heat where, who could stand to be here no matter what they got to see. It's really good to give them this kind of racing. Total attendance at last year's Nationals was 91,000.
