I assume you’ll see everyone at Lakeside, first race, $50k to win, good deal.

Wish they could’ve rolled it all out, but not complaining. Obviously Kokomo is a wonderful addition as it pretty much makes great racing regardless of discipline. I hope that they go back to LPS. Seems like they should be grandfathered in as the inaugural event of the series

I wonder if it these tracks are footing the bill for these shows or is high limit renting the track? Either way I wish them well.

My guess is rent
Larson can afford it, takes the risk/reward of a high paying race off of track ownership

Rumors are that this deal is similar to the LM Flo events that also happen mid-week. Flo throws in about $20-30k and then the promotion team is on the hook for the remainder.

My personal opinion and speculation is they rent the track. When the 2 day Late Model show came to Kokomo, there was hardly noone in the bleachers. Tracks cannot afford that financially, yet that LM show is coming back in 2023 to Kokomo again. Difference this time is 2 different shows, 2 different dates, both on Monday's, in the Spring/Summer instead of a 2 day back to back show in the fall. With this being said, my guess is renting the track out bc then the owners/promoters are good to go financially regardless of the crowd numbers.

Maybe they’ll take the wings off once and run Terre Haute Hulman Classic on Wednesday in May? $50,000 to win. Now that’s a high limit raced I’d go to!
