Guaranteed Purses

Tracy Robbins · 05-12-2010, 09:42 PM

Thanks for the congrats Jim and Joe. My point is the track operator is bending over backwards and genuinely loves stock and ss and is trying to help us grow...but, there are not enough s/ss racers w/in the 140 miles (2 hours 40 min. per mapquest) that seperate the two to make both locations successful if scheduled together. By the way, those roads on Mapquest go both ways, I've surely made my fair share of trips to Kinston. These cars are not top e.t. or footbrake cars that you regularly have 100 show up at all tracks on any given Saturday night.
That being said, hopefully that issue has been remedied by the new Sunday races at Kinston.
Now, do we need a larger guaranteed purse? Two day races? We had iron tree trophies last year, do we need those back? Any ideas?
