I see they just released a 2017 race schedule, another track going to a limited race schedule for 2017. There tossing in many enduros.

Look at it from a promoter side. You still have to pay $30 or whatever it is to get into the pits and only have to pay out a couple hundred dollars to Win race and a few other positions. It's not like you're paying out a full field of 24 cars. More and more tracks are seeing in Doros as being a profit maker at the back gate.

Yea I don't think there is any doubt it is a profit maker. Can't blame the promotors.

From my experience, people will stick around to watch an enduro (they are VERY good a lot of times). They pack up and leave for a regular race. It's a win for everyone to add them to the card once in a while.
