Wow. WRG is mad because Richards went to Lucas, or they are just looking for a reason to screw Izzo since they don't care for him. I thought Best paid their fine? Either way, Izzo and LaSalle just got royally screwed. That sucks big time.
UMP has been a joke for years. Until all the tracks band together and eliminate them the screwings will continue. Screwing people and tracks over was not Bob Memmer's intentions when he started UMP.
They took away the Summer Nationals races? Holy cow. But I predict Izzo will ultimately prevail in this situation, and not in court or something like that. He'll do things his way and I bet other tracks will follow suit, not only in support of LaSalle Speedway, but for the betterment of their own facility as well. I bet a few years from now, when things are different (for the better) in our sport, we might look back and see this as one of the turning points.
I am so tired of these witch hunts. This is only harming the sport.
Maybe the Thawl Brawl could become a Lucas race now. Wouldn't THAT be something.
I'm not at all familiar with the in's and out's of promoting, but since they took away the SN races at LaSalle, will it also somehow affect the show he is promoting at Sycamore?
The UMP tracks that have Lucas races where grandfathered in when DIRTcar threw a fit about UMP tracks having Lucas races instead of WOO LMS races. Any UMP Track that has a Lucas race will be subject to penalties unless you where one of these tracks grandfathered into the agreement. As I have said in the past World Racing Group (W.R.G.) / DIRTcar is a complete an absolute JOKE to dirt racing.
Well after what MARS did at Burlington I am boycotting all WRG events. I had planned on attending 15 this year. Not anymore. F them.
The only way it's going to change is if the vast majority of tracks drop UMP entirely. Not just one or two, but the VAST MAJORITY.
Total B.S.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WRG ran the show @ the thaw brawl. They're just now implementing this fine?
All they are doing is using it as leverage to get Eric Brock to sign on the dotted line.
And they are screwing Tony at the same time.
Again, TOTAL B.S. by WRG.
EVERYONE IN CENTRAL ILLINOIS SHOULD BOYCOTT WRG UNTIL LASALLE IS REINSTATED>
