That was very nice of you to post, thank you. We are trying our best to do our part to help the growth of lightning sprints in our area.
I do have a question for other lightning sprint / mini sprint drivers and teams? We have two races in the middle part of Missouri. One at L.A. raceway in LaMonte MO which is on Sat. April 13th. I noticed that MMSA, AMSA, WIMS and RMLSA do not have a race scheduled on this date. Realistically what would a payout have to be for some of you to think about making the trip this weekend to run with us. L.A. raceway is a great 3/8 mile track. There is lots of run off all around the track. It is on a large track of land and the corners are not inclosed with guard rail or fencing. This race is an all open wheel show, we will be supporting a local non winged sprint car division called WAR and the local ASCS warrior 360 sprint car division. I know some it just wont make since but some that live on the east side of IL or the west side of IN maybe? The next race is at California MO on May 26th. This race is at Double-X speedway. Double-X speedway was Jesse Hocketts home track and this race is there Jesse Hockett night which we will be supporting again the ASCS warrior 360 sprint cars and other classes. Double-X is a great open wheel 1/4 mile track and the fans love Jesse so the place will be packed. Plus it is on a long holiday weekend. California is 2.5hr from St. Louis.
Right now all of our races are guaranteed $500 to win. I know that for myself its not about the money as much as it is about racing against good guys and good tracks. But I would at least like to think I can win my money back to cover cost if I have a good night. What is that number for you?
