Re: New Division Director for Div 2
The alcohol classes need to at least pay an entry fee, and have a graduated purse. There is simply no money in those classes for the track, and no better than the margin is, the tracks must at least break even on every class, they cannot afford to lose. You cannot tell a track owner that he must lose money in order to host a race, no one, in this economy, can afford to risk operating at a loss, even for a year or two, in order to barely break even later.
There might be 1/4 mile tracks elsewhere, if the Division had shown signs of being willing to utilize and support them.
And if there was some decent profit to be made for the tracks, Bruton might host Division races. He might host a National Open, too.
