      With it now being $6000 to win I doubt the car count will be close to similar, I also doubt we will see many big name drivers. It is unfortunate that the weather had to mess this one up.

      Thanks,
      Jeff.

            It's not a stand alone event anymore, a two day show for 6 grand (poss 8500 to win ) Car count will go down a little.

              Weather didnt mess this up. Weather just delayed it. EAMS screwed this up with a 60% drop in purse. No way they would have lost 60% of their cars by delaying it a week.

                Its not the 60% of the cars they need to worry about, they probably realistically would have lost 15-20% but its who those 15-20% are that makes the difference.

                Would Davenport, Roberts, Hickman, Bloomquist, etc. still show up? Because they bring the fans out. They would after all be running against the Ultimate series, and thus none of those drivers would be at the show.

                Thanks,
                Jeff.

                  You obviously have never been to a special event at that track. The pits and the grandstands will still be packed no mater whether they loose some of the bigger names or not. There will also probably still be people showing up to camp a couple days early. I agree that them might loose some of the fans, but not even close to 60%. They are still running at least 8 different classes that will have full fields of cars. So they will still have a pretty substantial gate. If they had adjusted the purse by 25% or less it might sit alot better with me because at least then you could make an intelligent argument for your case. I would have still raced there for that. But dropping the purse 60% like that. That is really uncalled for.
