How can the Eldora Million advertise the largest purse in sprint car history?
I attended the Mopar Million a non wing event bac back in late September2003 a two day event at Eldora and saw Jack Houdenschild win. There is no credibility in the Eldora Million!

Top three at Mopar Million 200k, 150k 100k 10k to start. Total purse, 983,000 dollars.
Earl had a meeting, It was either Winner take all or break it down. The vote was to break it down. The LM million around that time was Winner take all.

Winner of 2023 Eldora Million 1,002,023 dollars.

Total purse for the Million is around $1.4 million. It’s basically the purse for the Historical Big One last year and adding the 1,002,023 winners share to the top.

I was merely pointing out that the winners share of this years Million is more than the total purse of the 2003 race that the poster calling this years a joke, IS WRONG, WAY WRONG.

You should really think things through (obviously you did very little of that, in this case), before you start throwing around words like "credibility". But, that's just my opinion.

In fact, It was the second highest paying race in America this year. Surpassed only by the Indy 500
