Cleatziff,
Your post is off topic but I will respond anyway. A good many of the teams that entered the Hut 100 would have been more competitive at North Vernon. The Hut 100 would have equaled several races on the engine but they only raised the purse for first place $1000. A $10,000 to $15,000 to win purse would have been more in line with the stature of the race.

Once again my post referred to actual fees paid to the racing org for that particular night of racing. Other expenses are what would be spent regardless of where you are racing. Once again, it was $30 out and $100 back. I'll take that anyday of the week.
For TC, we bought one American Racer for a cheaper price than a similar Hoosier. The purchase of tires is not a peculiar issue to any one org or race. You have to buy them anyway. Doesn't make any difference if you're buying a Hoosier SP2 for the Hut or Gas City, AMCT or whatever. You usually need a new tire. By buying a cheaper American Racer, I went home with even more bucks in my pocket.
