    Yeah it world draw a lot of cars but not if it pays only $100 to start. Top heavy payouts aren't a very smart idea if your looking to draw a field of cars. That's what Tony Izzo Jr. has been saying. these guys got to go home with something and feel like they where welcome at their track and they just might return to race there again.
    If the race has lets say a $30,000 / $35,000 total purse and the race pays $15,000 to win that don't leave a whole lot for the rest of the field.
    But if you pay $10,000 to win you have a lot more to spread out through out the field
    $10,000 to win and $600 to start is in my opinion a lot better then $15,000 to win and $350/ $400 to start.
    Just trying to show an example of what some promoters and drivers / teams are looking at. Have a fair payout and you just might see a good field of cars. The racing at the Gateway show was good but the payout was absolutely pathetic.

            Wasn't you just swinging from the promoters nuts a couple weeks ago, praising how great he was? And now you are bashing him....you're are special kind of stupid and a cancer to the sport!

                        It was front-page in the Mansfield News Journal a couple of days ago.

                                I see that they are starting to rip up the asphalt this morning. Glad to see that.
