Amazes me how people only talk about how much a race pays to win.
When I see this type of conversation, I think about the guys running in the middle and back of the field. To most of them getting $1500.00 at the pay window would probably feel like winning the lottery.
It's not the front winners that are cause the smaller and smaller fields. It's the guys racing for the love of it knowing they are going to be "also rans" most weeks who can no longer look their families in the eyes while spending what it takes to just show up each week to run for start money.
