    Super Late Models are dying because they are too expensive. Yet this series showcases the same wide open rules as WoO and Lucas that are slowly killing the sport.

    It showcases the same time trial format as WoO and Lucas that produces mediocre racing and puts the highest dollar teams in the front. And continues to kill car counts.

    And when only 24 drivers get the big money. Well you get 37 cars.

    Somebody is throwing away a lot of money to accomplish nothing.
    I didn’t know XR was suppose to fix this problem. Did they say they were going too?

    37 cars for 50k is gonna be the norm this year because it seems every weekend this year has a race paying that much. If you wanna blame XR, then blame the other organizations and series in the sport also.

    If this race was at Eldora, FALS, or any other big time track. We would all lose our minds and thinks it’s the greatest thing ever. Even if the car count was only slightly better.

    I think some of it can be blamed on DLM teams as well beuase drivers / teams think they have to have everything and price themselves right out of the business.
    They don't need everything.
    If many of them starting years ago would have actually taken the time to learn how to set a car up and or drive instead of thinking they need the latest and greastest ivention and or idea many might still be racing.
    STOP buying everything and learn to be a better driver and team with what you have.
    To tip it off some have very crapy car maintaince to keep a car running good and looking and making sure things are working properly.

    Just My Opinion.

    The man with the money says, we will outspend them all and some of them will stop racing, which some believe means more chance of me making money. If you have been around long enough I'm sure you have seen it.

    I guess the question becomes what were they trying to accomplish. If you are assuming they wanted to save SLMs, then no, it didn't work. My assumption is someone saw a way to create a buzz and make money, and if I am right, I imagine it worked pretty well. We'll see if they are still on the map next year, then you can be certain it worked. If they are a memory, then they failed. Accomplishments are in the perspective.

    Like I posted on another thread.. the Saturday night show was horrible. I watched the heats and feature that someone posted on You Tube. I actually skipped through most of if. Glad I didnt pay for that garbage.

    Also if you count only the fans that were there, not crew members or family of the drivers, it looks like less than 100.

    That is correct.. it is a clown show. Nearly every thread gets off in the weeds with stuff unrelated to racing.
