I wonder the same about why teams stay away when USAC shows up. 50 some cars showed up at Eldora for a race that paid how much? I can start a USAC sprint car feature and make more than 3rd at most...

Thank you. That is an impressive payout. Nice to see a show that doesn't pay $5K to win and $1K for 2nd. Looks like I need to find a ride for this one. I'd take a wing ride too by the way.
