This is a really good deal for the racers.
Let me ask you:
Would you rather pay $200 to run for $1,000
or
$200 with a re-entry rd and run for $5,000

I know where I would vote.

Look at this also say you have 50 cars first rd. Only 25 can do the re-entry and normally only half will. Say 14 Re-enter of those only 7 come back with the 25 first rd winners equal 32 car. This estimate does'nt even add a rd to the race but gives the track an extra $1400 in entry money to pay the purse.
It's a good deal don't bash it until you try it. It could be the next new thing.
You guys always fuss about payout here is your chance to run for more money.

If the buy back is used to pay the purse its a good deal. Usually the buy back money ends up in the track owners pocket. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
