All the whiners started on this start and park crap last year.Get over it. There were plenty of cars and they raced their asses off. Was best 3 days of season last year and will be again!

It's a great paying 3 day show for everyone! Not to mention all the lap money and prize giveaways added. We are lucky this is in our back yard. Support it!

Just curious, is there any other sprint car race in the state of Indiana in 2013 that paid $1000 to start?

I would assume purse structure is same as last year.............Seems like de-ja-vu all over again!

The start money is great, just thought with the higher profile race that it would be better across the board. Glad I have all the experts to set me straight. See everyone Thursday

actually a rr was $250 3 years ago when I quit buying them. There probably more now. However there will not be any start & park in this game..

Let me get this straight. This race pays $5k to win each night on Thursday and Friday. It also pays $10k on Saturday. It also pays $1k to make the main. What's the problem again.

Guys ***** when the winner doesn't get enough, guys ***** when it does not pay well throughout the field. But never heard guys ***** before when a NON-WING purse pays $20K to sweep the weekend or $10k for Saturday, or ***** for $1000 to start.

Not one car started and parked. They raced their hearts out. Yes some got into accidents and thankfully were all ok. But none started and parked. They even ran a one on one races( king of the hill) no complaints there and drivers were happy and fans enjoyed the show. Guess what it's back only 2 days away
