it pays 5 times as much to win a usac race then a weekly show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It don't cost 5 times as much to race usac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No it doesnt 4 grand to win a usac show and 1400 to win a local show. 4000 divided by 1400 is ????? ya 2.85. So lets see run lets say kokomo this last sunday. i would have had to get a new rr and left rears we all know what old rubber is not going to work at a sprint week show one rr at 175 3 left rears around 200 so thats 775 and i havent left the house, all the expenices to get to the track, tp, transponder, radio, extra money for pitpass so now your at least at a grand in havent hot lapped yet. Then 2 grand worth of usac bs about sun visor this and side panel that. So now it has cost alot of money and been no fun. And even if you get throught the night perfectly with no scratches you still spend a grand in wear and tear. So there is no advantage to run a usac show for someone that has to stick what they can do to race. ya it would be great to be there and race. but honestly who is not there at a normal show or a kiss show. I dont race to prove anything to anyone i do it cause i love it. And i dont have to win a usac show to prove that i can race with the best. I race with the best every sunday local show at kokomo. And now it is time for a same less plug NEW BILLY PUTERBAUGH T Shirt will be out in august but the art work gets done i will post it so everyone can see. Thank you to FatHeadz Eyewear, DRC, Indy Race Parts.

Best of luck Billy. Keep your head up as you are an awesome driver! Best of luck the rest of the season! You will get a break soon and someone else can pay the bills and you will just have to drive!

Do what you gotta do Billy! I've been a fan for a long time and the "Spirit of Indiana" Poster hangs proudly in my garage... I'll be first in line to get one of those new T-Shirts too!

( I did what I wanted to ) Sounds like the same thing Billy P. is doing to me

But why is Penske the best Duke? Yes he is smart, and yes he gets smart people around him - but he also has a bigger budget. Speed costs - how fast do you want to go?

Not that my opinion counts, but in the end Billy run whatever deal you want to. For anyone who is worried about him not being at ISW, write a check, send it to him and I'm sure he will be at the next race. I would like to see him out there as well, but he has to do what he feels is best for his race team. As for your new shirts, when they are available, let us know, I want one.
