It's a 100,000 to win, 2,000 to start race...any other money is just bonus money folks... Why wouldn't they get 80 to 100 cars...there are no big races scheduled against it...it's as much money as any race has paid in the last 15 years..and dont forget when you guys talk about 200 cars at eldora back in the day, remember a lot of guys entered and qualified 2 cars back then...if gateway can get a 100 cars for 30,000 , i'm sure they will come for a hundred grand...
...just sayin

I've seen this mentioned before. When they had 250+ cars back in the nineties, they did not have two cars.

I'd pay $100 for a Bloomquist t shirt and to sit in the driver's seat of the hauler for 5 mins.

I think motivation is THE issue. Why in the world would you donate money to them?? I mean the race is already paying 100,000 to win. So, the fans are expected to buy a pretty expensive ticket....and then donate extra money out of the goodness of their hearts?? It just doesn't make sense. It would be just like going to any race and walking up to the window....."I know tickets are 25.00....but I'm going to pay 100.00"
Why, as a fan would I care if the race pays 100,000 to win, or 110,00, or 150,000 or 200,000?

I give the guy props for a new concept for a high paying race, but this post is my exact same feeling. Ticket, travel, lodging and a donation? I know you don’t have to donate, but I think it’s a tough sell to the average fan to help up your already top heavy purse
