1) I was wondering if the little 500 is 500 laps??????...lol
a) Ok, you answered that question.
2) How much is the purse for the little 500?
3) How much would the purse have to be to attract the same
amount of racers for the Midget 400 to be equal equal to
the fans and racers who attended the Lil 500..ie... purse wise?
4) If the promoter can equal the purse in proportion to the Lil 500, I
see no reason why the Midget 400 should not be a success fan
and racer wise.
5) And not knowing anything about midget racing or fans or midget
races I would say no racer or no fan or promoter should
have any problems about this race if the the promoter can match
the purse of the Lil 500 for the Midget 400.
6) If the promoter can not meet the purse proportion wise to
the Lil 500 for the Midget 400 then Don Moore has a point.
The promoter is trying to make a buck off the racers. Which
I here is typical in some racing and at some tracks.

Larry "O",
I would doubt that the Midget 400 would pay what the Little 500 pays out purse wise in the very first year. The Little 500 has a very long history and it has taken a number of years to gain the race sponsors and lap sponsorships. I would think that Rick Dawson would pay a fair purse but I doubt it will be equal to the Little 500 payout. JMO
