Evan thats quite rant considering i just pointed out that Pinecrest was speaking to racerfan44 . You may as well put me on the list with the several people on here that thinks its wrong to pay one gender more to win a race be it through bonuses or what ever .  I was as surprised as hill3 that you dismiss Richard Petty as just some old timer but i am sure Dale Earnhardt is just some dead guy to you as well . It seems to me you had lots of time to counter Pinecrests opinions while he was here and could respond but to rave on about him now only makes you look bad in my opinion . I did think PM stood for private message so to post anything he said to you in private would also seem to be in poor taste . Since you have decided to share his private message with us i would say he was right about that too.

Just my opinion

wow, even i think this is getting stupid!

i must have missed something pc said, because i don't see anywhere in this 8 pages that anybody is anti female, unless maybe its that "caucasion male can,t say anything without it being misinterpreted as racist/sexist, by a racist or sexist!" thing.
any way, i am against any driver, that has no respect for the equipment, , male or female, black, white, green, red, yellow, teal or purple.

and i can't believe anybody has to email anybody, to tattle! what a bunch of immature sucks! if you don't like what somebody writes, don't read it! quit bothering evan!

evan what the heck is wrong with you. first of all unfurnishedapartment called out racerfan44 not you, go back and read the postings. secondly do not dare and tell us what to think, pc had the right to believe and say what he wants even if most disagree.what i dont get is the delaware thread started out as a post wrt inequality. women in racing fine no problem but i will be damned if i will race against them for less money. equal is equal. lastly i for one would not dis the Petty's, they have built this sport they have bled for it and they have died for it. have you?

You're racing for the same purse money, how hard is that to understand? Show me mens and womens purses for the enduro and you'll have a case. I don't know how many times people have to beat it through you head that outside of the bonus, its the same purse. Sheesh...

and how many times does it have to be beat into your head that the bonus is what we are talking about. i am far from the dummy you think i am? e.g. purse in 800 to win if i win i get 800 if shelia wins she gets 1300. i do not think that is fair,any type of moral juxtaposition from you WILL NOT CHANGE MY MIND, get it?quit p***ing down my back and tell me that it is raining

I fully realize you're going to be stuck in your ways, right or wrong, until the day you die so I'm not totally sure why I'm wasting my time on you. If you're going off about the bonus (which is separate from the purse) don't go off about unequal payouts. There's a big difference there, and through all of this you haven't been noting the difference. If you're eligible for it and don't get it, then yes its not fair, but if you're not eligible then there's no issue. It's not as if the 500 bucks is being taken from the pre-existing payout, so there is no issue. If you want to stick your fingers in your ears and repeat "La la la, I can't hear you," be my guest. All that's going to do is let time pass you right on by.

I may have missed it if posted previously but is the bonus for the female potential winner being paid by the track or a sponsor ? If it is to attract some fans in the stands , that is  the track owners decision isn't it ? We are discussing a private enterprise here, they can make whatever choice on a payout for an event they are presenting on their own property. If any male drivers don't like it, they should not enter the property and sign the waiver. The only people the bonus effects are the  competitors, not anyone posting on this board . Some of you guys are blowing this way out of proportion . It's a racing thing, plain and simple.  ;D  Let the politicians and lawyers worry about the politics and the law... let's go racin boys !! On a side note Evan, if you are not making a profit from this site , I really wonder why you keep it going sometimes. I would have packed it in along time ago. You don't deserve the criticism that seems to be constantly thrown at you.
