I know that it's a sport that we all love, but until you send a message to promoters that you will not pay a pit fee unless the purse is posted out in the open, or given to you as a handout, well, you've got no leverage.

So I don't think that anyone was "shorted" at the pay window - I just think that the money wasn't there in the first place - you just didn't know about it. Casey had the right idea last night. His team probably made more money by not racing than the team that finished 7th. I'd imagine that one RR would eat into any chance of making a buck that a team had!

I was a good boy, chicken strips and a coke was the extent of my purchases lol. I kinda enjoyed myself only because it was like what's gonna happen next, the "big one" before the flagstand in heat one, the ambulance getting stuck on the track, the wheel standing tow truck, the lights going out, the tow truck pulling the tow truck pulling the super stock, the rythem section in 1 and 2, or the triple in 3 and 4, the flagman not giving the two leaders the white flag, and last but not least the questionable payout. Last nights winners were LPS, Walker/Darland, and Racing Optics lol. What did I miss?
