Mark,

I do agree the timing of raising fees was not good.

I do not know if I'm right or wrong, I just like to have a positive attitude about racing and life in general. If things don't work out, well at least I had a good time while I was doing it.

Not being taken advantage of is commendable along with standing up for what you believe in, but always being negative makes for a miserable life.

Jerry, I understand some people may not make as much money as they need to race. I'm just pointing out how the increased fees effected me. I have won two nationals events over many years. The first one in 1991 I won $9800.00, the second one in 1997 I won $12000.00. If i won today, I would be getting $13000.00. Its not much of an increase, but it has gone up for me.

Good luck Jerry, I do wish you well.
