after reading for a while over on 4m.net it might be safe to assume it might have something to do with latemodels being adding to the weekly program.

I for one would rather see a much larger payout in all classes that currently support the track and have a really good points fund to encourage more drivers to run. and not just a larger payout out on the top, but all they way though the field. I run demolitions derbies all the time and the promoters who pay more deep in the field are the ones with better shows and a better car count. Lets face it alot of guys know whether they are capable of finishing in the top 5 week in and week out. If you are not one of those guys you are racing and putting on a show for what $100 most nights. I say spread the money out though the field more and you will have a much better show. I know it works that way in derbies why should racing be any different.
