Again, Don and Chad, you guys have no intention on running in 2 classes, so why the beef?
Or are you now considering running with the 600 minis and Midgets, Don? I'd hate to see a wang on the #10...

:2:Hey no beef with me. I am not even going to go now. As I said before I believe it to be wrong but I wish the Gundakers well and hope it is a huge success for them. Have a great time this weekend to all.

Now back to the original post. Who all is going to be doing double duty? I can think of about 10 who may try it depending on if their equipment is still together and also if any of the wing guys take of their wings for Thurs and Fri. The weather looks fantastic, wish I could be there.

Once again the thread turns into "The Don Moore Agenda". I do have to give him credit as he has not mentioned the Purple Tire Company in the last 2 sentences. Mr. Moore you have already stated that you will not be participating in this event.( as is your right). Why do you continue to create ill will for an event you have no plans on attending. Now quit stalking this event, and go back to your miserable,depressed cave. You are a bitter man Mr. Moore, now quit stalking this event.

If there's any agenda, Mr. Funk, it's to inform the uninformed people like you about what goes on beyond the pit fence. You race fans are constantly on here posting about car counts, why this team or that teams doesn't show for such and such a race etc. etc. There are reasons why car counts are what they are at certain tracks and why some teams don't show. This thread is about drivers/teams who may possibly enter two different classes. If you did your homework, you would notice that after I pointed out that the promoters are collecting double pit pass money that several objected to this practice. Secondly, I'm sure some teams have already read about the double pit pass fee themselves. They didn't need me to point it out, but I'm sure some were not aware of it since it's buried in an entry blank on the web site. Bottom line Mr. Funk, whether I point out this fact or not, some teams are not going to show for this event because of this practice. If you want an example of what I'm talking about, reread what Mr. Branson has to say about double pit pass charges. If I were going to consider racing two classes at that facility I certainly would like to know the pit pass fees before I showed up and I'm sure many have no idea that they will be charged double. And you can be assured that there will be some that will show up and will be very unhappy when they find out. Contrary to what many of you fans think, there is a lot more to it than loading up a race car and showing up at a race track. And contrary also to what you think, not everyone that shows up at the pit pass shack is a multimillionaire as someone else thought in one of the posts in this thread. Many teams that you watch on the track live week to week with their race operation, pinching pennies here and there to survive. Have some respect for the lower budget teams and those that don't have a million dollars to spend in one season. Paying the promoters twice could be a very valid reason why you people in the stands are constantly on here posting about car counts. If 20 guys want to pay double to race there, more power to them, but there are probably just as many who won't show because of it. Paying double to enter the pits is a very very uncommon practice and as you can tell by some of the posts is not very popular.

So let me get this right Mr. Moore. You checked the website of a show that not only you are not going to attend, but have bad mouthed more than once in the past week. Gosh, the reason you did it was you knew an unimformed guy like me could be disappointed by the car count. Always looking out for someone else. Give me a break. Mr. Moore you may consider me uninformed,but I know BS when I hear it.

Thank you very much Mr. Moore for letting me know how I think. All this time I didn't know.

Apparently you are totally unaware that you haven't posted one word yet about the subject of this thread.

It's stated in black and white 100% clear on the entry form right above the purse layout which I KNOW was the first thing Don Moore checked out.

I guess Chuck and Don just don't read very well.

Don, it's always personal with you. You degrade and insult anyone who disagrees with you in the slightest manner possible. Fans, drivers, crew car owners, officials, you insult people who put more time, money, and effort into their racecars for one race than you do in an entire year. I'm really sick of it. Look in the mirror for a change.

I have to agree with Don and Chad on this............A Pit Pass is simply a pass for admission to the Pit, nothing more and nothing less.........
