Greg, I agree with you 100%. Comp Cams, Moser, Quickfuel and Jeg's also pay in a fair amount of time. I appologize, I am not trying to hijack your thread, but seems to me if all these companies agree to pay contigencies why is it such a battle to get paid? This could all stop if they all paid you at the end of the race. Whether it be for class, LODRS or a national event. Everyone that I know of that wins anything in NHRA and IHRA has to work to get some if not all of their contingency. How many of you pay to enter a race after it is over? No one I know of. But yet we have to wait to get paid, send e-mails, make phone calls, get the 'check is in the mail' excuse, and on and on. To get paid on the spot all the sponsors would have to do is have a list of competitors that qualify, look at the list and then pay you ... maybe that makes too much sense ... and of course we all know that none of us are in it for the $$ anyway ..
