Like NASCAR, the Indy Racing League is still seeking all of its money from the promoter of the recent race in Milwaukee.
IRL officials would not discuss details, but Terry Angstadt, the president of the commercial division, confirmed it’s an issue his staff is “working through.”
The IRL raced at Wisconsin State Fair Park on May 30-31.
“We’re working on a (payment) plan; I think that’s the best way to put it,” Angstadt said Saturday prior to the IndyCar Series race at Richmond International Raceway.
Sanctioning fees vary by event, but the average figure for an IndyCar Series race is $1 million.
