Weekly D-2 payout for SSMS
Several racers have called so I'll post it right here...Yes at ALL my races DRIVER gets free pit pass....Drivers at entertainers and it is my belief that a driver should not pay to put on a show to "ENTERTAIN" the folks in the stands...This is with 15 cars or more and last week we had 22....14 or less it's $175 to start...The south is really starting to "DIG" the midgets:22:...it was almost standing room only at the track we raced in the Carolina's

WHAT? A promoter with some common sense about not charging drivers for a pit pass. This is unheard of...... :6:

Would love to see that payout in our area.

Re: Weekly D-2 payout for SSMS
It sounds as if Wayne and the SSMS have been very lucky and come across one of those very rare these days promoters that can actually pay for the purse out of the front gate. Some promoters just can't do that because of great competition with other forms of recreation in the immediate area of their track. It is after all competition people and the racers needs to realize this fact. Most promoters would like to have larger purses but when up against a block buster movie, a football game, and a really good show on TV they have to be satisfied with what they have and often that is the back gate revenue to work out of.
Congratulation Wayne Davis !!!:8: Honest Dad himself:6::6: |

Most of the time they need the $$$ more then the guys up front |

I think its good to let the 600's run with the bigger cars, I think the 600's are going to stay hot. They are a great little starter car. Around here they are the ONLY nonwing cars around.
