Good luck with that.

Not sure what logic is going on in your brain. When in the history of ever has anyone ran a show, collected all fees and gate, and then neither paid out purse nor refund?

[zach51]

Nope, that's called theft. Last time I checked still not legal in any state.

Good luck with that.

His best case scenario would be to keep all the money knowing that there wasn't an open date to make up the race.

They're making up the mod and hornet features Wednesday. That's the only time they will honor the rain check. And the best part? They're charging everyone who wasn't there $5 to get in.

[zach51]

No he's not. This is his absolute best case scenario.

Other options would have been to come back and finish the show, but he'd have to pay full purse then.

Act like it never happened and cancel. He'd be out all his expenses plus refunds.

I don't necessarily disagree, however the promoter is actually doing more than he should in this case (if he was a greedy, no good for nothing A-hole as ya'll are proclaiming). He was willing to compromise, pay half. Heck man they lost 40 laps worth of hot dog sales!

This makes zero sense other than to screw the drivers out of half the purse. All entry fees were paid. All gate money had been collected. This was not a two day show that got cut to one day. This show was 3 minutes from being a complete show. Please tell me what reason could possibly be floated as to how you could have paid the entire purse at that point, but not now.

I'm usually fairly understanding to a promoters plight, but this is a bit much.

Nothing surprises me, when it comes to WRG and Peoria. All I can say, is STOP THIEF. First they took LaSalles race date. Now they took the money from the fans and the racers.

UMP has always been a bit peculiar though hasn't it? I seem to remember a lot of drivers complaining about how different the UMP body rules were than anything else they ran.

[BloomerHarvickFan]

Fair thing to do, it seems from the promoters standpoint would be, to keep the fans happy, give them 1/2 price admission to another special event, or free entry to a regular weekly race at the track.

It seems very unfair to pay half the purse, AFTER the fans have paid full price, for a regularly scheduled non-postponed event.

[Mantis]

I feel a Cody Mahoney screw job about to happen.

A DOD article posted earlier today stated Moyer won the weekly points with Mahoney taking second.

Since the powers that be are making up the rules as we go and not releasing any info pertaining to the points, I have no idea if the above statement is true or false other than trusting the all mighty DOD.

WRG = We're Really Greedy

Anyone but bobby

[bullring]

Can somebody explain the reason for not paying the full purse? The money was already collected at the gate so why would he not get $10,000?

[Snake X3]

I believe the same thing happened at Volusia. UMP can't get the F out of there own way.

Agreed. Just follow your own dang rules. Stop making 5hit up as you go along.
