We have never taken "big money to win" into consideration when deciding where to run. Only one driver can win, the likelihood is you are going to spend much more to race than you are going to win on any given night.......and that deficit is only going to get higher if you start traveling a couple of hours because a track has a "big money" race.
Most of us are recreational racers. We just hope to enjoy the evening and be able to push the car back into the trailer. If we were doing this for the money we would have quit long ago.
This past Saturday at Lawrenceburg we had a pretty mediocre night on the track.......didn't run real well but made the show. The BOSS payout was $300 which pretty much covered our expenses for the evening. The car and my driver were all in one piece when the racing was over.....that's pretty much what I'm shooting for.
REALLY !!!! Please stop it !! In CA this last Sat. night there was a King of the West Sprint Car race in Stockton (3K to win) and BCRA Midgets and 360 Sprint Cars (Maybe 1K to win) at Placerville Speedway. Outside of "maybe" one or two local tracks running, that was pretty much it for the State of California racing this last weekend. That is an area that would take up a good portion of the Mid-West…
PLEASE FELLA's for the sake of your racing, don't complain, support support support and be glad you actually have racing to watch ….Very Very Good Racing Too….
