Fan Appreciation Night?????
$2,500 to win late model race on Friday night with a $20.00 gate price or $35.00 pit price, then on Saturday $5,000 to win late model race with a gate price of $20.00 and a pit price of $40.00!! You've got to be kidding me! A Lucas Oil race is usually $25 gate price and a $35 pit price and it's $10,000 to win and over $40,000 in payout! This doesn't sound like much of a fan appreciation weekend! With the high prices at the gates, and lack of cars supporting the track sounds like a good weekend to stay home. Good luck on the weekend, especially with some homecoming ballgames, railroad days, and the truck series race at Ky Speedway.
