I also remember over 600 stock, super stock and modified entries at Indy. It's about control and money - your money.
Dwight - You have some valid points - they did run things differently back in the Seventies - we even got a Sunday morning time shot .But today fitting six hundred entries is hard - we now tow with motorhomes and have stackers in that space - not to mention the Pro's (ala John Force types with plenty of sponsor rigs ) - we just don't fit in the same space we once did .

Yes , its about control - but remember - its their bat and ball we're playing with .
