We all agree that short track racers deserve higher paying purses on a regular basis, but where is that money going to come from? Sponsors aren't beating down the doors of our local racing establishments and begging them to take truck loads of cash off of their hands. Operating expenses aren't going down. Fan/Participant attendance isn't on the rise. Racing may be our hobby, but it's their business. These tracks have to make money to stay open. I applaud Bloomington Speedway for trying to help the little guys out with their new purse adjustments. Yes, they cut money off of the top...but it has been reallocated throughout the field. The total purse has not been lowered.
