I've said that for years... ALMS is a joke paying $2000 to win shows. And yes, racing at Eldora for $2k is insane. Eldora is very hard on equipment and if you mess up and get into a crash you can completely junk an entire race car.

Does anyone know how many years the Appleseed Classic has been ran? And it pays $3000 to win this time.
It started in the 70's or 80's.
-
Should be a $5000 to win event at the least. Ain’t like Smoke doesn’t have the coin for it. (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) shame imo.

The total purse for the Appleseed is actually more than the $5,000 to win ALMS total purse even though its $3,000 to win. They've just spread out the monies down throughout the field more. Position by position payouts are at the links below.
Johnny Appleseed LM purse: $16,850

If I'm not mistaken, they did this for a couple years now.

Heard with the Midway rainout a lot of guys heading to Eldora and a lot of guys that ran Florence are coming also.
-
Appleseed originated at Mansfield speedway I think in mid 70's. I'm 41 and remember going when was young pos and it was run late in season like last week of September.
-
Also John Lawhorn is the only driver to win it at Mansfield and then at Eldora. Another thing this race use to be a big tune up to the World 100 in September on Sunday during Labor Day. I remember 85 Super Lates showing up in 2004. Also when they have tonights race on Sunday we normally would see 60 show up for the tuneup to the Dream.
