TD and TS Q16 at LVD Sept 5

pentastarrail · 08-12-2010, 06:48 AM

Heck,
Let's have 2 races. A Q8 and a TD/TS race.
Different weekends of course.

I understand about the Sept 5. That is a VERY popular weekend.
If I'm not mistaken Epping has something going on also.

But let's see what kind of response we get.
I know there are other guys out there with fast stuff.
Let's see if we hear from them.

Also your opinons are encouraged..... (Thanks Tim).

I dont have a dog in the "fast car" fight, but since everyone is worried about what the payout is going to be, ie: moose crap, camel jockey, blow hard, etc. putting $100.00 into the pot per car will only equal $800 or $1600 to the Winner/RU correct? what about the whinners that will comeout of the woodwork saying you wont have any money to pay back. And I am sure that the above mentioned wont come out for that prize money, they really have fast cars!!! lol...

again, this is only my opinion... just preparing you for the next level of questions...

Deb and BJ you guys are both right in you opinion. We all just have diff ideas and wanna race diff things. Yes in a heads up quick 8 format you will not be competative - that's fine and you guys should keep the normal quick whatever bracket style race.
My point is we have enough racers local to have a heads up race. And no I will not be coming to race for 800 to win when you expect me to pay 135 to enter - Neither will anyone else. The pro comp racing is ZERO entry and 4 people in for free paying double that to win - same with the dc outlaws (think they are 1200 to win - not 100% sure)
I said this in PM's to people - if the track does not get involved and promote it and get the fans to help with the payout it will never happen. We can easily have a field of 8 dragsters running 6.50 and faster but the race will never happen in the way the payouts are described. The entire concept to having fast cars is to get people to come watch - thus paying the purse. Everyone benefits.

I could be wrong - just my 2cents.

I also would like to see the 3 stooges run.
