I looked up the purse. Total 4 day purse is $912,805. The winner gets $150,000. Like I said before, that would OBVIOUSLY be the hardest part to put together. It wouldn’t have to be THAT large of a purse. There aren’t very many facilities that can handle an event like that. Lawrenceburg is one of them because of seating and general room. That’s all I was saying. A multi-day event leading up to the main event would be great. Doesn’t have to be quite on the same level, days or purse wise. When the topic was brought up about bigger events, I brought it up. I’ve always thought the non-wing guys deserve an event like this too. You’re doing a great job with getting bigger events so not complaining, just wishing.

Come on Dave, if anybody can raise a million it’s you.
I like your suggestion and if the promoter maybe followed the lead of past Oval Nationals @ Perris or this year's revival of the Pacific Coast Nationals @ Tulare sometime during the summer months next year, I am sure, IMO it would be a hit. Both of course are out here on the left coast, but usually bring out the sprint car fans. USAC of course and not the high priced wingers of WoO. Never been to Lawrenceburg, but it will be my first stop in Indiana.
