Very Good summary of the race, it is very much an endurance game,I have a friend who seldom misses running it, which makes it more interesting

I was sitting with 2 highly respected promoters 4 years ago. They were amazed that the insurance company hadn't shut it down.

At a guess I'd say this event bank rolls the entire season for the speedway.

Isn’t it the highest paying (to win) sprint car race in Indiana now?

I thought it paid pretty good. I don't remember the exact amount.

Pretty good up top and It looks decent back. But 900 a set of tires and that was two years ago price quoted by a owner, Times how many? At least four or five sets. plus you buy their fuel.

Still on a Chili Bowl of Pavement sprint level. It's a sellout event.

You'd probably be right Stephen. That and the Red Bud Pavement LM race.
