lots of world of outlaw teams sitting out Ocala, including Schatz. Is it because of last years mess? or is it because of the purse? Or both?

Very Disheartening to see Bubba not get a Full Field of cars, & to ESPECIALLY have race teams that traveled hundreds of miles to race, sitting in trailers, in the neighborhood because of for whatever reasons. Man back in the day race teams would race whereever and whenever they could, I will give a SHOUT OUT TO THE TEAMS that DID supported the ALL STARS & BUBBA RACEWAY PARK Tonight. When did this Racing Mentality start, that you won't take car off the trailer, if the purse is lower ?????

Historically many of the Outlaws have rarely or never run the Florida All-Star races. Tonight only one Outlaw regular raced and he won.

when it started costing so much to take the car off the trailer. if someone knows you will race for less, they will pay you less to race.
to indy and beyond!!

Soooooo....the idea we are promoting here is that the teams are accustomed to making money racing sprint cars?

Would always like to see more cars. Wouldd also liked to seen Aaron win another good 410 race. But that was some great racing... (hate mods and they put on an ok show, too many spin outs though) xsan has great coverage, great picture and its high def. AAnnouncer is tough to listen to for the duration. But all in all, great show. Cant wait for tonight!

The all-star purse hasn't been raised significantly in at least 20 years and you expect a lot of cars to still show up? The cost of fielding a 410 sprint cars has at least doubled in those same 20 years. Most of the 410 teams would have to travel at least 1000 miles or more. Why would you do that for 5G to win and peanuts if you don't make the top 10? Running a sprint car team isn't a charity and it isn't cheap.
