This will probably hit a soft spot for some people but I don't care. In my opinion, if the purse is not raised and your not running for at least 1200 to win, then basically your starting a Paragon traveling series. I have been reading every single post and there have been some very good ideas. But if you don't raise that winning purse, your going to be promoting a group of racers that are going to be tough to promote. Give the people in the stands someone to root for. Now I'm not saying lets get USAC racers to spot in this series, (thats what ruined sprintcar racing) but I do believe to help this series grow you (from a promotor standpoint) are going to want to see a majority of your promotable local teams come over. I completely agree with keeping the competiton fair and close. Put the simple steel block motor in the car, limit the horsepower, put a weight rule on the cars minus driver to keep the titanium parts away and throw the green. :greenflag:
