Thanks for the advice, but its not a easy fix, if i had a extra million laying around i would try it. With a huge weekly payout, you will attract some of the bigger teams, and you would run off your lower budgeted teams. I am a bit offended by your comment of me back gate promoting, or maybe i am just reading it wrong, if i was back gate promoting i would run 6 classes of cars a week. I agree the purses are lower than the racers deserve, and i have been working really hard to increase the purses, without going bankrupt. What can you do to help our sport? you can send a letter to track sponsors and tell them thank you, for supporting racing, you can bring new fans to the races. We have a number of programs going that can assist you in bringing more new fans. Just e-mail me at
rpmproductions@comcast.net and we can let you know about some of our programs, like fundraisers and group rate, and we also have company outing for a great rate.
Thanks for your interest in our sport, Dave Rudisell
