Still don't understand, just like last year.. It's a "special event" and has a $30 entry fee, yet it pays less then a standard Sunday night show if you run 4th to 9th..

That's just it... they didn't advertise "tow money." There go getting anything is just a bonus. If it wasn't advertised then rightfully they didn't HAVE to pay anything. Look at the weekly payout there, no tow money is advertised there either.

[Sarcasm] I think it's a great idea to pay a "performer" even when they don't perform well.
Paying tow money to guys who perform poorly during local Indiana racing is stupid. Yeah I know... Being a car owner or driver can be tough on the wallet. My advice would be don't suck, drive faster. ;) |

I have an idea why don't all of us teams that suck stay home so you can watch the handful of good drivers then next year the rest of the teams that suck can stay home too.
I say build more wallmarts and close all the race tracks. J.M.O. Jerry |
How will you know if you suck if don't race? ;)

Saturday night of the Klash is one of my favorite shows every year. Annually freeze my ass off, but its worth it. |

Where is Don Moore?? Hoosier Race Fan are you related to Don. I think I've seen a post just like that(well a longer post just like that) from him. Don if you happen upon this thread, just teasing, I couldnt resist :D

Ok while I am pi@#ing people off I think the people that baited duke Cook should have been banned as well, most of the people that made fun of Duke or said things knowing Duke was old school and would not run and hide with his tail between his legs like most of the keyboard jockeys teasing him would. And it is my opinion the same keyboard jockeys that got him going could not carry his jock let alone his helmet bag. How about the guy from the west coast sure some of his post where off the wall but that did not give anyone the right to treat him the way some of you did. You put your last dime in something go out and try to put on a show and not get at least your pit pass back then come on here and talk about how happy you are. Go ahead and tell me if I don't like it to take our car and stay home because we and a bunch of other race teams are real close to doing just that. I respect all of your opinions but the people putting on the show should at least be shown some respect, and yes I respect Don Moore. Bad day your right, do I feel better, not at all Jerry #66j |
Agree with you Jerry 100%.

I have always wondered about this guys like darland, stanbrough,cottle,just to name a few of hired drivers, if they owned their own equipment if they would run local shows for 1200-1500 to win races and not complain like the rest of us about start money or tow money, know somewhere along the way they have owned their own stuff, not trying to pizz amyone off just asking,you don't see tracy hines running to many weekly shows if any so with out field fillers don't think they would be many cars at your favorite track maybe they would all be special events.:44:

I just want to thank all the drivers and car owners who invest their time and money and risk their equipment and lives so us fans can watch racing. I think that gives them a right to strong opinions. Where would we be if they all stayed home

Not to beat a dead horse here, but is there tow money this year for Kokomo Klash? I've always wanted to run there but with my suck a$$ 360..( For Bill) I know I'll be looking for tow money to maybe pay my pit pass.. Anyone know?

Again I'm sorry if I'm missing it. Bill |

Re: Kokomo Klash VII info posted: Fri. & Sat., Oct 18 & 19
Is there a media contact for the Klash? I sent an email to the person listed on the Kokomo Speedway site but I didn't hear anything back. Was interested possibly shooting one or both days.
