In a reply to hoosier race fan, Indiana has maybe more racetracks than any other state.
Let's use Huset's for example:
World of Outlaws there three weeks ago. Attendance sold out.
USAC at Huset's this past weekend. Attendance embarrassing.

2022 winners:
WoO 15
USAC 9

2022 average car count:
WoO 36
USAC 29

2022 total purse payout so far:
WoO 2,225,075
USAC 514,910

Eldora this week for Historical Big One, Night Before King's Royal, and King's Royal will be near full capacity.
USAC there in September for the 4 Crown Nationals attendance will be at best 1/4 capacity.

Dirt ovals per state:
Kalifornia 35
Pennsylvania 33
Iowa 30
New York 27
Ohio 24
Minnesota 24
Wisconsin 23
Missouri 20
Tennesse 20
Texas 18
Nebraska 18
Indiana 17

Hate it when facts get in the way of an agenda.
