1. Please read my first post in this thread. I've outlined how to cut the costs of midget engines in half and those engines will last up to three years without a rebuild. FYI, some teams are rebuilding engines after single digit performances.
2. Cut the cord with the tire manufacturers. Competition will lower tire costs along with developing a tire that will last more than one race.
3. Regarding purses: No need to raise ticket prices. Instead of $5000 to win it would be $2000 to win , for example, and the $3000 from the top would be distributed throughout the field. This is a very simple concept by cutting the top out and sprinkling it down the ladder. For a reasonable example, go to the Rumble Series web site and read the payout that Tony Barhorst has published for the Fort Wayne races. That payout is not the perfect example but is much better than any mainline midget payout that I know of in the country.
