KOKOMO Monday Mayhem with High Limit (14) (3,801)

5/15/25, 5:08 PM
Illinois and eastern Iowa are not great sprint car areas. Several attempts have been made and I think only Tri-City has ever been able to draw.

As for Kokomo, the WoO races they’ve had there have...

Bad thing about the main class not being the last event is that you can’t go into the pits after their show ends. I think one support division on a time limit that helps widen the track is perfect if...

Because the drivers pay the purse. 200 cars at $600 is $120k.

I enjoy the big race feel, no matter what division. I’d go to Fairbury even though I much prefer sprints to LMs.

This is only a portion of the WoO point fund that’s missing the exclusivity bonus. For example Gravel got $350k for winning the points last year.

Does anyone do a master schedule for Indiana 410 wingless? I know the Usac master is put out but would be interested to see one strictly for the Indiana tracks running sprints.

Flo probably does foot the bill a bit given it’s the only thing on this time of year. I doubt it actually makes anyone purchase a subscription but I’m sure they have formulas that allocate a portion...

They have a lot of land and could do more with it. I think they could really build up the backstretch grandstands. I don’t think they have a lot of room in the frontstretch area as I-55 is literally...

Why would the inclusion of midgets as a support class to a novelty LM event grow the sport? The Chili Bowl gets as much if not more attention than the Dome event and still midgets as an overall class...

The increased purses definitely hurt the margins these days. Now that both national series are at around $65-70k purse, that necessitates higher ticket prices which also may cause casual fans to pass...

Seems like a good track for winged sprints. Didn’t rubber up, stayed 2 grooved for the whole race.

Brady was quite good this year at the Nationals. No fluke effort, he was a legit fast car. I wonder if this will spring board him into full time wings in the future.

They seem to be going to more bullrings now than before. I don’t have data to back that up but High Limit has certainly had their fair share of quarter miles so far and the WoO also seems more open...
