Sorry Chris, I read it wrong, i thought you were against high purses for sprint cars. I do understand that promoters like to put up big money for late model races because they get it back at the back gate. Sprint car fields are limited by the number of guys that can actually race a sprint car. The self preservation instinct of the normal human limits the pool of available drivers. How many times have you heard someone say "I like watching them, but I would never drive one" referring to a late model or modified?
