See anything wrong with the purses and the start and parkers?
 
The racetracks have as much to do with the purses as NASCAR does. Bruton Smith usually pays better at his tracks which might explain why a truck race pays more than the Nationwide series for the winners.
 
be interesting to see a comparison when all three series run the same track.
 
Look up this past years Daytona 500. I did a while back, difference is eye opening.
 
Start and parkers probrably did not run all of last year, and may not be eligible for all of the awards that full time drivers and teams get.
 
The #36 team has come out and said they will start and park, that's why Riggs quit.
 
I just dont see the reason to sugar code the reason there out of the race. Instead of puting Vibration or Overheating they should just put $. Unless they think everyone actualy belives they have such a bad vibration they cant run more than 5 laps :rolleyes:
