And that is what Benson raced at Delaware this year. Getting back to the track PR thing, this is one event I missed because I didn't hear a thing about it until after. PR after the fact doesn't get you gate receipts!
I remember how they set of the fire works when the first car finished the race and others started to check up as the smoke made it look like there was a wreck near the start finish line.
With Cayuga going with the "Specials" format, why wouldn't they be at CPT to promote whatever their agenda is ??? This would be a great PR opportunity for them.
Its nice that someone posted the finishing order from the 2002 and 2003 event at Cayuga, back in the day when it was still CASCAR...37 cars for one race and 44 for the other.
Now thats a car count !!
If these Cup guys want to run the race up here this year, there are a ton of available cars that are ready to run as many guys have said there out of the Nascar deal.
It would be easy to say there at least 20 cars that are sitting that are ready to go if someone is going to buck up, but dont think these guys are going to do it for nothing.
It will take anywhere's from $15,000 to $30,000 to rent the cars, and I can gaurentee you that Nascar isint about to pay.
It would be good to see them run this race because there probablly wont be anymore then about 20 NCTS cars on the track, so making the feild for qualifying would be as simple as pushing a tire around the track.
This is a great promotion that Cayuga is doing.
I just hope they dont get to disapointed by the cost to do such a program.
The ex Cup guys generally get around $10,000 for a show like this, but the current Cup guys like Matt costs around $50,000..... Â Its a ton of money to spend just for Autographs....
I wonder how much they pay Jason White to show up at these races.....
And he wont even charge you for an autograph...
He might even pay you for yours !! Â
The least he will do is give you a coupon for 25% off at A&W....
Really though...anyone in the NCTS that turns down anything more then $5,000 is nuts, even if its the only car they have, as ther is no way in a milion years they could make that much money even if they sat on the pole, led every lap, and went on to win the race.
Send them my way and I will rent them my car...and watch the race with Jason from the pits eating PaPa burgers and layghing all the way to the bank !!! Â Â

At least one of the times Johnny has been to Delaware was a last minute thing...since he was scheduled to race the car the next night at his home track (Berlin), he came to Delaware to get some seat time.
