The most diverse set of drivers assembled in a race that is not about money with speeds probably less than 75MPH ?and cars that are a fraction of the cost[still expensive] to try and win a Golden Driller. The timing is perfect for almost all venues of racing to compete. To buy a ride to compete can be twice the winners share.? The winner usually is a dirt guy or gal? with bull ring experience but not always as T-Mac showed a few years ago. Usually the winner says it is a race they all want to win.

Thats a tough one. The KK stable has won their share but there are several other teams that are on that level. After Shoot Out Bell Larson and Snyder would be near top. But Seavy Day Axom Buddy are right there. Similar to Knoxville Nationals every lap counts for Saturday finale. Kevin and Sammy were at the top with their car design and skill but I think the Run What U Brung days are past and appears they are teching for tires and other things. Never saw a scale on Flos coverage as they didnt use to have weight limit. Assume Emmitt has increased purse as micros paid $2500 but the Driller is worth more to probably every driver. I dont know exactly but the midget motors are expensive and chasiss is same or close to sprint car.Again repeating but renting a good ride with help is twice what winner gets witch was $10K. In Emmitts defense costs a lot to put on race like this much higher than going to an existing track. Each one of those truck loads of dirt costs more than most would guess. Not one other race due to timing and fun has top drivers from most every form of racing competing . The WOO[sprint and LM] HL NASCAR Indy F-1? USAC Midget series micro stars go karters some not even teenagers plus ones that are talented or just have money wanting to showcase their talent
