    Some of the Regional late model guys won't mind because they have a chance of winning 7,500 if they can sweep the weekend.

I think if a track like Eldora would pay $40,000 to win and $2,000 to start and put it as a 2 day show Friday and Saturday rain date Sunday and have Super Lates on the undercard it would attract 250 Mods and 35 Super Lates.
      They have to limit entries, because they have a limited amount of pit space.

        Good lord, as a late model fan I can't imagine sitting through this modified cautionfest. I'm going to Wheatland too!

          It does have the penitential of being a caution fest but, I will probably produce better racing than the late moles at Wheatland

If you do not have the space to put the cars then you need not have a support class and /or you need not have a big race.

            Limiting entries **should** weed out some of the junk that causes cautions

              Agree although those c mains could be brutal.

                Time limits and parking cars after they bring out a few cautions would help. Reserving the right to park a car for the weekend could also help.
                Why some people with lack of talent come to these shows makes no sense. Why a track continues to let a driver with lack of talent stink up the show is beyond me...
                The black flag needs to be used way more often in racing.

                  Maybe the Gateway Nationals should take what 427 into consideration!

                    If u sit through the dome or dtwc or pdc heat 1 latest 2023 you will be just fine watching this race.

                      The FALS modified feature race during the PDC championship Saturday night has never disappointed. That field of cars has the best drivers, and the racing is hard and clean. See no reason why this big race won't be the same.
