I"m just amazed. Its such a pleasure watching Kyle Cummins race, so smooth, don"t get rattled. Course a lot of that also comes from him knowing how well his crew has the car set up. Great job team ROCK STEADY 3R and great driving Kyle!!!!

And yet they got nearly 50 entries for most of the Sprint Week races. Why would they pay more?
Even Roman Chariots ran non-wing, and on dirt. Hail Caesar!

What I’ve been told by others is that LPS is 50 miles from Indy and TSS is 150 miles from Indy. That, coupled with the time difference and the fact that TSS has walls and LPS doesn’t is why teams are willing to race for less.

We wouldn't have the problem if our state legislature put the entire state into the Central time zone where it actually belongs.
