In today's money that would be a "Buck Seventy Five". I miss 12C White Castle's.
What I really miss is a big race for real open wheel drivers to aspire to. I guess they figure the average attention span for a red neck open wheel fan is about 50 Laps on a 1/2 mile track. What would be wrong with 500 miles on a 1 1/2 or 2 1/2 mile race track. I think NASCAR has proven they can make an engine run that long with fenders on their cars. How about the same engine in a Roadster. Kentucky Motor speedway would be a good place to start. It would be close to a lot of open wheel race fans, and could probably use a few more days of race action.
