Million Dollar Race Thread?!

[Buckeye SLM]

Thread started by ptown about “The Real Dirt Million” disappears as soon as some actual truth gets told on it. Way to go. Censorship at its finest. Guess we can all be assured Kelley Carlton is one of the mods of this forum.

Actually I replied to you and it went poof. So don't put it on me. And to answer your points.

Ultimate has only been around for 8 years and has some of the best paying purses and point fund in the region. At least know what you are talking about if you are trying to put me or the series down.

I don't know you or the series as well as some of these guys do.....but for anyone to try and put either you or the series down just speaks to their ignorance about how you guys operate and what kind of show the ultimate series produces every week.

Clearly the person making the comments don't get to many ultimate shows.

Perfect, no but what is????better than the rest , absolutely........by a full second at least.

[Mason87]

I have been to a few ultimate shows and it's the best ran regional series I've been to.

[NY DIRT]

As of today 8/20/18 the payout for the dirt million feature event is $369,000

the payout for this years world 100 feature is $188,600

are their still fans that are not satisfied that the event at mansfield will be the second highest dirt late model feature payout in the history of the sport???

[hucktyson]

This Cody fella created an event from nothing in St. Louis then brought Mansfield back from the dead with a 100k sprint race and now a 180k to win late model race and the 4m haters act like he’s a loser , similar to how they act when Bobby pierce wins Crown Jewels .

It's gained $105 in the last 45 mins or so.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Lol. It’s a conspiracy against you guys, sure is, total censorship.

Give Cody props, instead of being negative over absolutely nothing. Paying a ton to win and start, should be applauded, but nope. Want racing to grow and survive, but cannot have any kind of new ideas.

[Illtsate32]

I think its awesome regardless if the goal fell short of a million, still a total sucess in my mind, the whole apparel and provisional deal with spending money to help a driver out, love it, nobodys saying you half to spend a dime. That really drew my interest the closer it got to the race. The provisionals should be posted today I hope Bobby made the top 4...

[MI Dirt Fan]

Just gone up another $110. Helps drivers out with merchandise sales even if your not going. Merchandise sales can help some teams make it down the road each week.

[Trax53]

$369,293.00

[GEAR_HEAD]

The big jump in the purse will be right before the feature when the ticker has all of the PPV contributions accounted for. I have a feeling the PPV subscriptions are going to be plentiful.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Look at who the presenting sponsor is, and you'll know why it went *poof*...

[MI Dirt Fan]

I wonder if any 50/50 ticket revenue will count towards it.

[dch191]

The ppv contribution is what I’m most interested in seeing. I have no clue how many buys they average per event or how much each buy will add to the purse but I don’t think it’d be too much of a stretch for that to add another $100k to the purse.

[Pennsboro23]

I think we will see the winner get at least $215,000 to win.

[MI Dirt Fan]

Then it would really have to go up quite a bit as it is going up through the field also. I'm thinking the winner will get somewhere in between of $185k-$190k.

It's at $185,000 as we speak. They still have PPV sales, I'm assuming ticket sales for people who haven't bought them yet will contribute, and t-shirts?

[MI Dirt Fan]

Oh ok. I didn't know it was at $185k now already. I saw someone post it was at $175k about a week or so ago.

[flagone]

The 50/50 sales will go to the National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame.

[MI Dirt Fan]

Up another $300 or so in the last 90 mins

[TackyTracker]

maybe this could be people that are pre-ordering ppv

I hope the track stays together because that's my biggest fear.. still going to give props to Cody for trying this.. I hope this event does great...

I'll most likely order Sat night as long as the track holds together Fri

[MI Dirt Fan]

Could be. I just saw an ad to preorder

[dirt crow]

I say The Donald gonna throw in and get it to the Million just before the green waves.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

I plan on purchasing it. The track worries me, but I’m not going to miss it and wanna support it.

[Illtsate32]

Have they said who the 4 fans provisionals are yet? I think it ended last night...

[MI Dirt Fan]

How is the weather looking so far?

[Roundtown21]

Depending what weather outlet you check, Friday looks the best at 77ish and sunny. Saturday ranges from 40%-60% scattered thunderstorms as of Monday night. Hopefully whatever it is breaks up and drops little to no rain.

Based on the typical track conditions there we should all do a rain dance on Saturday. Why wish for no rain when a storm will do nothing but make the track better?

[PITTSBURGH]

What kind of race can it be if the racing surface is soo awful dusty the competitors can't see each other, let alone the fan seeing whats going on! I was there July 1 and the racing surface sucked! I was getting pelted with stones the whole evening! It is a beautiful facility but they could put a little more effort in track prep

[Illtsate32]

The promotional video track was dusty, thats that junk bluff dirt, idk if the paved track is still there but they need to blade down a good 4ft or so and put some good moist dark soil on it, I dont know everything but I think that would help immensely...

Clay and as you lay it down take the rocks out.

[Illtsate32]

Ya CnB take a D6 or something and peel that loose dry bluff dirt away and put down a good 3-4 ft of good clay in lifts...

[maddenfan]

Does anybody remember cody putting on those races at lancaster...the winner each year didn't get but half the monwy is what i heard

Yup I think he paid some more to some driver.

[Clayton_Wetter]

I got a provisional, now all I need is a car!!!!

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

And a set of balls! Hahahahahahaha

[MI Dirt Fan]

I don't remember if the fantasy points are close or not within the top 3-top 5 but if I was up there I'd be taking Max Blair as the wild card seeing he's got the provisional.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Top 7 are within 77pts. I think 5 6 & 7 are only a few pts of each other

[Illtsate32]

SS if you need to make up points go against the public with the wildcard pick...

No kidding. Anything with Arizona or Gerald Newton involved is sacred.
I got booted from 2 Bloomquist facebook pages for calling out the stupid GoFundMe that Gerald started to get Ricky Weiss 200,000 to run the Lucas Oil Series.

There would be less complaining had he came up with a more clever name than "The Dirt Million". When people heard the name they though..."oh great"...then when you see what it is, you feel like you baited and switched. If' he'd have just came up with a name not tied to the outside chance of getting to a million dollar purse, I feel people wouldn't been against it
The "Race Fan 100", or the "Fan Fund 100"....something like that.

[fryefan]

I have no problem with it, but then again I took the time to read the details of the event.

What does ricky have do with Scott other than drive his chassis and Scott tells him how set it up. I could see if was ricky fan page reason of you getting kicked out.

I had this discussion with a few DLM media members at Florence. They opine that common sense isn't allowed here lol.
