    It doesn't have him listed on DoD as an entrant. But it's been on his schedule for atleast a couple weeks.

    So we create a new class (crates) when the top class gets too expensive, then pay $20,000 to win which attracts the big names. Makes sense. JMO

    Yeah I think its bs myself. If Swainsboro any balls they wouldn't let guys like jd, Scott, Bronson, Rambo, Hudson, Ross, Ferguson and ect race the event. Anyone raced more than 10 super late race they shouldnot be allowed to race any big money crate event.

    At the very least if you have ever won a Regional or Touring event...

    It's not about the health of the sport for these promoters it's about profit and those names coming are sure gonna add some more butts in the stands.

    There used to be a big paying crate race that you had to run a certain amount of crate races to be qualified to run the big show I cant remember where it was but I think it wasnt long ago. I remember jd running it.

    I understand why the promoters want the big names there and I understand why the big name are wanting to race these races. Maybe the $20,000 to win is about right for the crates and the super purses are lacking, but when there are many super races that pay less then $10,000 to win I think paying a crate class $20,000 defeats the purpose of the class. It's not the drivers fault, nor the promoters IMO, this is where the sanctioning body is needed to keep the class what it was intended to be, less expensive.
    We all know that the racers are their own enemy when it comes to the rising costs of racing. These big name guys are leading the way, even though I don't think it's their intent to do so.

    This is a non touring sanctioned event so who cares who shows up.

    I could care less who shows up TBH, but don't complain about the costs of racing when this stuff happens. I have no problem with Scott and other guys running this race, as long as they are allowed to, they should IMO. Big purses to control costs is not effective was my point.

    Running a crate might be saving money compared to open motor until you bolt on after market light weight low drag/friction parts

    yep , now if they made them run non adjustable oil shocks , no bumps or stacks or 2 stage , and one shock per wheel and one tire with no grooving or sipping , except for aero advantage , i wouldn't care who showed up ,

    Most definitely.

    I think it’s the one Fastrack World Championship Race that only allowed strictly crate guys. Think the $5k one.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.
