Ok for one, there was a significant purse increase this year. There was no increase in prices. 50% higher to win. 50% higher to start. I always buy mine in advance and the price was $85. I assumed you would want the extra race to pay decent through the field, so with $5000 to win you would be looking at a USAC sprint type purse. I would think a it would take a price increase to offset that kind of cost. Of course you could rent a track like say Lawrenceburg, which has more seats, promote this show and see how it goes. I promise I would buy a ticket.
