The reason none of the promoters want a USAC race is due to the massive purse. At least with a Must See or HOSS purse promoters at least stand a chance to make a $. Low car counts dont help the back gate at all and promoters are dependant entirely on front gate admission. The lower purses of the wing cars and the amount of cars they bring make the risk vs. reward factor alot better for a promoter. With a USAC event, thats one tough nut to crack for a promoter in these troubled economic times and they just cant take that kind of risk right now. Most are struggling just to keep the doors open.
