Tire rule or not, I don't know the reason but look at Paragon and BOSS, highest car counts this weekend I believe. Hell Charleston got 14 cars that is twice what they normally get. LPS and MSCS was $3000 to win and the LPS past track champion Shane Cockrum was at Paragon I guess you would have to ask him and his car owner why.
I am a Paragon regular and would and did run other places before the 4 corner tire rule. I had planed on running at least one or two USAC shows until they jumped on the bandwagon and went to the 4 corner rule.
As far as big dogs, every track has there big dogs and Indiana it self has more good drivers and cars then anywhere else, so any track you go to in Indiana it is tough to win.
As a car owner and Driver I have a dog in this fight and the 4 corner rule only benefits the tracks, sanctioning body and manufacturer and does nothing for the car owner or whoever is paying the tire bill.
While I wouldn't be at Bloomington and Kokomo every week, If they didn't have a 4 corner rule I would be there on some weekends as like it was stated in and earlier post a lot of us work 40 hours a week or more. I work 50 to 60 hours so I can race and Friday and Sundays are hard but I would support other track that didn't tell me what tires to put on my car that is not financially good for me and my budget.
