It dont matter if Sunset Paid a Million bucks to everyone in the race... you would still have idiots finding fault....BROVO Sunset! thanks for supporting racing and keeping it alive! Who cares what any of these wanna be's have to say....If it werent for Sunset and Barrie and people that cared then we have a bunch of jerks on a message board complaining about the sad state of racing.....OH wait we already do! ;D ;D ;D
Who cares what it is or was. It's more money to the racers at two tracks and maybe more will follow and drivers can make a few extra bucks, which they deserve.
Lmao it never fails. Someone always has to try and stir the pot... ::)
Who cares what Sunset is doing to 1-up Barrie's late model points fund!
everybodys legs are tired from jumping back and forth. lol well, i wonder what will happen this saturday? so much for splitting the division. the perverbial carrot has been put in front of the donkeys!
In the short run these huge pay outs may seem good, but in reality the long term affects will just put short track racing further in a dilemma. This will be a result of tracks spending more, and teams spending more to go for the high pot, resulting in decreased competition. The guys with money are just going to spend more, and the guys without money will either get out of the game or be labelled as "unskilled" or hazards on the race track. Big payouts are NOT the fix to the problems tracks have been facing. Better marketing/ rules hamronization/ working together with schedules/ and tighter tech sheds are whats needed. In any other buisness setting , two competitors fighting by jacking up their operating costs has never historically provided postive results. These tracks need to invest in educated business/marketing/operations people. Sunset has done this with Wide Open, and has flourished this year from the benefits. If the other tracks want to keep up they need to stop being run like a circus soley by "gear heads"
There's my rant for the day.
I'm open criticism, and interested to see how many people agree or disagree. I'm in my first semester of automotive marketing so if anyone reading wants to hire on a co-op student or knows of possible leads shot me a PM 🙂
