    They will always get cars because its Eldora, and I know they have limited seating but with the car costs nowadays and how demanding that track is the $5k shows barely makes it worthwhile anymore from a financial standpoint. But track experience is invaluable.

      I definitely agree. Eldora should run 10k to win shows minimum. I don't expect a lot of cars especially with Fairbury getting a few of the Indiana cars, but it's Eldora, and I'd like to get back sooner than later to watch.

          FALS for 10K just might take some cars from Eldora for 5K.

            I'm sorry, FALS is paying 15K to win. That will make a racer think about his plans.

              Is there a good paying show Friday night that guys can race before Eldora on Saturday? $15,000 to win at Fairbury is great, plus the $10,000 to win at Farmer City on Friday to go with it.

                Not really. Shows on the DoD schedule there's a $5k race at Tri City in MI. Really out of the way though.

                  Moler has a 3k to win on friday. Its not really decent money unless you win. I can't see that drawing in anyone that hasn't already been there this year. Maybe Moran since he will be in the area already.

                    I agree, at a minimum 10k, The wear and tear on your car. And sadly the fact is Eldora has no locals to count on for car counts, thats because it is a special events track. There is no real commitment to growing the sport at the Big E. Dont get me wrong the Dream and World are awesome. But outside of that the track sits closed most weekends during the summer. Sadly they will be lucky to get 15 late models.

                        Alms, thought maybe it folded. What about jeep, both chamberlain, maybe a carpenter, dohm, and Conley. Matt Miller and DeLong still together?
