Let's face it, people including myself have tried the big time, high dollar payout for sportsman racers and it just doesn't work. Ask Myself, Lee Zane, Mike Beard, Dave Ley, you can put $20,000 up to win and people still won't come because a Wally is not up for grabs even when there is no races within 300 miles of your race. Promoters have even put events a day before Divisional is supposed to be run and can't draw people even while they are parked for the Divisional race.

The payouts do need an overhaul but, what can you do besides beat a dead horse that is already dead.
I don't necessarily disagree with this, Bob
Just looking for thoughts / suggestions here.
