They ran this spot, with action shots, during the Mayweather-Hatton PPV fight Saturday night. And it is on the front page of the HBO Sports web page. So they are actively doing some mass marketing for this event. And at only $24.95, it will be affordable enough for most racing households that don't get to attend, to tune in.

1. Do you have preliminary inside info that this is a money making deal? If you can look into the crystal ball and see that this is a money maker a month in advance, then that is one good crystal ball.

2. Do you want to make public your business deals? They surely feel the same way.

You just cant resist can you Don. It's their right to make what ever they can on their promotion. They are getting 275 cars why should they offer more $. It's more about the prestige of winning than the dollars anyway. If you dont like it vote with your wallet, keep your cars home and dont buy the PPV.

Dude-Do you have to turn every thread into your argument against the Chilli Bowl. Why can't you understand that if everyone else that is anyone in midget racing is going, then you are the one with issues. All you do is ***** about the "Rummble" and the "Chilli-Bowl" !!!!!It won't be long and you will have this thread shut down.

Yes, I would agree that it's a fair price, for sure! It's great that fans that can't make the Chili Bowl have an option to catch the race.

Also, if fans, owners, sponsors, drivers, etc. keep attending the Chili Bowl in record numbers, then good luck trying to change anyone's mind on it.
