Now that's the type of purse that Championship Cars deserve!

Love the work you're doing, Kasey Coler.

But 32 payout spots aren’t needed. What is it like 18 or 20 usually make the call? It’s also the Hoosier Hundred in name only

I know that you don't prefer pavement racing, but....
We should never let the decisions of governments ruin our fun. Long live the Hoosier Hundred!

Chris, let’s not get started on government. Using the name is illegitimate. But I’m sure it will carry on regardless of what I think. But since you brought up the government, I have a message for whoever in government thought it was a good idea to put limestone down at the Indy mile and to end Motorsport there. May you burn in hell for desecration of the hallowed grounds! 🔥 🔥🔥

After all the money and time Bob Sargent put in keeping not only the Hoosier Hundred, but Silver Crown racing going, I am fine with him try to get a return on his investment. I believe this will be the top paying Silver Crown race. I am fine with it. Sorry it isn't at the Indy Mile, but that is what happens when your state is controlled by the casino industry.

Here’s the thing. I’m not going to go to a pavement race just because you put a name on it that is revered as a historically great race. Now I’m not against pavement as much as I might come across. What I don’t like is people telling me how wonderful it is when I actually saw it when it was. It’s not now. Sorry if I offended you, but actually not. But today we’re supposed to apologize for something that might offend someone

Like it or not, pavement racing is what's going to keep Silver Crown going in the long term. Don't think so and you don't understand where the money in the series already is.

From a guy who hasn't been to a pavement race of any kind in at least fifteen years...
