Its not the track promoter charging for parking, its the fairground board. Most of the racetracks in CA are on public property. The State used to give money to the fairgrounds for operation and maintenance. A coupke years ago the State eliminated the funds frin the state budget and the fairgrounds were left with trying to find a way to generate the lost revenue. Midt have resorted to requiring a parking fee for events. Not that this makes it any easier to pay but the promoter has no say and does not get any of the money.

California isn't another state but another country.

Chuck what are you talking about? The Burg pays $225 to start, but the payout hasn't raised for several seasons. Just saying. Not getting in any debate, just stating the facts.

Not going to argue with you JT but your facts are wrong and a couple years ago there wasn't even the hundred two money. and it paid 225 for 15-20th now that's just 20th He's raised something, somewhere in the purse every year since 2010

Ok, not going to argue either, but I have print offs of the purse every year back to 2011 and it is the same.

While i'll always agree price increases suck. Theres two sides to every coin
im sure the lighting, diesel, insurance and everything else hasn't gone down.

That being said, 4.50 for a pretzel with cheese? $&$#(##&$(@#*
talking about lincoln park...yes he did...but he does not raise them for special events

The Burg does pay $225 to start, more then any other local track, but it also only pays $350 for 5th..
