Just got my 2025 renewal email and yearly pricing going up to $179.88. Just a heads up for everyone, still a great value in my book.

You are correct sir. I have my limit’s but considering I paid 150 for basically only USAC, this is still a great value. And still less expensive than DV

Why ask here? Why not call some tracks and ask them personally. Maybe they'll let you in on their financial dealings.

It was inevitable that their membership price would eventually go up. Staff, hotels, vehicles, transportation costs, camera equipment and all the production costs. Multiple series, dirt and pavement. Writers, columnists, and special features, especially on the Dirt of Dirt side. Yes, I'm like others, hoping the tracks get a bigger cut. Clearly when a race like the pavement Snowball Derby switches to FLO, that should tell you the value they see. For just over .50 cents a day, I'm happy to pay. Plus, look at all the other sports FLO covers. We forget about that.

Amazing as soon as I made the above comment, I got an e-mail from Dirt Vision offering a $50 discount for a new membership. Streaming wars.

Capitalism, my fellow American. Whether you are for it or against it, it built this country commercially.

If there's not enough money to the tracks and racers. There'll be no capital left.

Agree 100%, Charles.

Like I said, like it or not this is the foundation of American business. If Flo is going to run these guys out of business, Flo is going to have to help them stay afloat. The tracks are Flo Racing's bread and butter, so to speak. Flo needs them. Eventually this monetary requirement will be passed on to us, the viewers, as rates will go up. An interesting dynamic.

What I find just as interesting is, for example, all of the USAC races are on Flo. So for those events the tracks have to rely on Flo's money along with what gate money there will be if the gate money in fact takes a hit due to Flo. But there are some TRACKS that are always on Flo. Lincoln Speedway in Pennsylvania, for instance. I think every week they are on Flo. How do they keep the gate money up there and the seats full?

Oh. By the way, Happy New Year guys and gals!

Let us be glad we were not on Bourbon Street last night and send good vibes to everyone down that way who were affected.
