Fontana payments

[Jim Meador]

"Happy Days" are here again. Just rec'd my RU $$$ from the Div race. Plans to visit Vons are being made as I write this post to go stock (no pun intended) up on vittles.

Also, just informed Jim and Frank Grossi and Clark that I am buying today at Flo's in celebration..........just kidding about that !

Congrats on the runner up,Jim! You drove your rear end off,including going past mine in the second round, and did very well.Fun visiting with you as well. How far back did the race pay?

I called - from drag strip to big track to Florida and finally to you

It is not a W9 issue for almost every one of us - we know about that excuse an avoid it

Just really poor customer treatment

Do you think they would wait on us to pay -- you know the answer is -- NO

No payment from the track yet. I may have to take out one of them title loans on the superstocker. Ron . can you share the number?

Pretty sad when the race winner doesn't get paid! I wanted to order some parts from Jegs for my car but didn't because I haven't been paid from a race that they are the title sponsors of. I wonder if they can go ahead and ship them and I will pay when the track pays me! lol

I tried to contact Graham Light today - he is out for several days.
I was referred to Mike Rice.
Called him - we talked.
I was wrong - the checks did not go out from Florida - they were sent back to Fontana to be mailed a week later than expected.
Mike was assured they went out last Thursday - not likely.
What a bunch of BS.
Mike said he was going to talk to them about the "corporate delays".
Next year it will be different - LMFAO.
Still no check today.
Tomorrow I will call Shirley Carter at JEGS - maybe they will care.

One of the pros in Div. 2 got their check from Englishtown on 6/15.

I left a message on the track answering machine this morning (not the event announcement line).

I called JEGS and left a lengthy message for Shirley Carter.

I then called back and spoke with Matt for quite some time - he seemed genuinely concerned and was surprised by the treatment the racers are getting from Fontana Drag Strip (Bill France/NASCAR). He assured me he would escalate to the proper people.

We closed by me saying - of course - the checks will probably arrive today - he said - so what it took to long.

6/26/15....


Still no mailbox money from the SportsNational.


In the past I've had experience with NHRA paying in a decent amount of time following National events.


I did get a W9 request from VP today. I guess that's a start?

Good .. we also have had contingency sponsor contact but what we are talking about here is track winnings

Unbelievable - absolutely no excuse - it should be embarrassing to the track

those dang Bill France's are causing troubles from the grave. Senior has been dead for 23 years and Junior has been dead for 8. Now Brian has an ex-wife who wishes he was dead.
