Will USAC get Hoosiers permission for a longer lasting tire, or will Hoosier do what they think is best. If you want a long running tire call American Racer. I saw a set go 500 laps at the Little 500 once, and win the show. After that they weren't invited back.
If you don't make a tire that lasts more then one night, it won't be worth it to run with the smaller purse.You'll have no chance of ever coming near break even for anyone. The small teams will need that to even think of running.
The one plus is Thursday night races. Some smaller teams from up north may be willing to trek down here. Once again, that will depend on the purse structure.
