I think the All Stars issue was they bit off more than they could chew because I think they scheduled 4 Indiana races in a row back in 2021 (I think). In retrospect, one date at Circle City followed by the $26k to win show at Kokomo would have made more sense. As for needing a companion race to book w/ Kokomo, that doesn't make a ton of sense to me given how many teams are based near the Indy area. You could race anywhere in a couple hundred mile radius and then go to Kokomo as the teams are based near there.
