Div 2 Orlando race moved to Atlanta

The problem .... as it was explained to me ...

Is that the track opperators are to grant the Alky teams(drivers and crew) free entry into the divisional event. on top of that they need to guarantee thier payout... That alone is upwards of a 20K + hit to the track....

I for one feel that IF TAFC and TAD are still "Sportsman" classes then they should be required to pay thier way in like everyone else..... and like everyone else "IF" the class continues to show low car counts it could be in jepardy of being cut from the program...

I think it was last year or the year prior that Bradenton had like 5 TAFC's and maybe 7 TAD's show.... Spectators who were there on Saturday did not return sunday because there was nothing to see.... Thus a lack of income for the track.... Unless a class can support itself, the payouts need to be adjusted accordingly... In simple terms if thier not paying entry fees.... then they dont run for any $$$$ its basicly an open test session for them.....

Its really ashame that D2 seems to be the only one who only has 5 races... most others have 6 or more plus opens.... and now having to travel back and forth is a major inconvienance to many racers, let alone the costs....
