VMP D1 race moment #1.....

The dumb part is, most tracks look at free tickets as lost revenue. You give out 100 free passes. Maybe 60 of those people will actually show. Out of that 60, likely 30 wouldn't have come anyway so you've lost the sale of 30 tickets, but the track counts that as 70 tickets they lost money on. They completely disregard the fact that they now have 60 people on the property spending money and potential future customers if they enjoy the show.
