Our weekly pit pass is $25. We only had one show that deviated from that.

As far as our purse goes, if you hadn't noticed, every class at WRP saw a cut in purse for 2011. Our weekly purse for the Mini Sprints in 2011 is $1755, plus tow money for every car that takes a competition lap. We had to cut the purses to ensure that the track could operate and at least break even. With a year under our belts, and some experience to build upon, we hope to improve that area for everyone. It is my goal in the off season to beat down the doors of every sponsor I can to ensure that we can not only run a weekly show, but that we can run a weekly show that pays the racers in all classes well.
Other than the winner, Waynesfield generally pays the same or better than AMSA.
