Off of the lucas tour. Not at atomic today
How many Late Models present?
I said it awhile ago. Your going to see more do it. Costs have gone up drastically. How can you blame them ?
This year is going to change national touring late models drastically. It’s not so much the costs as it the options to make money outside of a natijbak
Bayko,
And options to race locally or regionally are disappearing.
It's more the local option, but not long ago I was spoiled for choice within 2 hours of home. Every week with multiple options. Now, there are weeks I have zero if I don't buy a $10k, 400 hp, turd engine.
Y'all fans and racers created it by buying the polished turd
You hit nail on head. They have created a class to pay less and costs aren't really that different. Fans keep paying to watch it so promoters keep giving it
We are lucky around here to have the Blue Ridge late model series. They allow just about any late model to run and they make it work. Races are great.
Didn't see this one coming. It's not like the Bronson clan is hurting for $$. He could use the provisionals to get in some shows. The top guys (Overton, Davienport, Moran, etc) can bounce around and not worry too much, but the mid pack-ish guys are a different story. This year will be interesting to see how it all plays out! If all of these bigger $$ races hold for next year and the 2 National tours, it could really be wild!! We shall see.
Could this have more to do with Kyle now running GIS?
Didn't he just get married? Every race car driver on the planet races less when they get married, at least in the first year or two.
Marriage, GIS, hummmm who do I nestle up to so that next year they bring a few race dates to MY racetrack. Hummmm
Probably kids on the way
I think someone at Atomic said he was going to run Bristol the next couple weeks.
