LPS's regular payback scale is lower anyway, but it is sure frustrating when your driver runs 9th out of 35 cars and you only get back $275.00, which is only a $25.00 increase from finishing dead last in the A-Main. We go to race as hard as we can, but after 30 laps of fuel, tires, and everything else we made an extra $25.00 more than just running one lap and pulling in...this is the reason why we have went to other tracks more than LPS this year. All positions should account for something. 10th place should never pay the same as 20th place. However, at LPS there is almost no increase in payback until you get to 8th or 9th....

Keeping in mind that at a regular LPS show 5th place pays $350 ...
This annual race gives the racers that may not be regular front runners an opportunity to actually make a bit more money for one night.
35 cars showed, so many must be enticed by such a concept?!?
