I'm not going to vote in your poll because I am not a car owner, but I do want to make a comment.

I feel it is not realistic to expect a purse like you have posted above. The total for 20 positions is $6,300. That amount is too high for a support class.

Here is Bloomington's current purse structure for a 20 car field as posted on their website:

Sprints - $7,895
Modifieds - $3,435
Super Stocks - $2,880
Hornets - $950

The purse you have posted above is only $15 less than the modified and super stock purses combined.

In my opinion it would be unrealistic to expect any track to increase their payout by 41.5%.

To keep the total purse the same, they would need to replace the modified & super stock class with the Raceceiver class. 20 modifieds & 20 super stocks would bring in more pit pass & general admission ticket sales than 20 Raceceiver sprints, so to me that doesn't make sense either.

I suggest waiting until an official announcement is made by Bloomington Speedway regarding schedule and purse structure.
