    Nothing but props for Cody and the gang. At least he’s trying some fresh ideas. But then some are only negative, or only obsessed with a certain 32 car.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

        Last I looked, their were more than a half doz. Bloomer threads on the first page. They're not all obsessed with the 32.

          I understand from the promotional aspect of things what they were trying to do but the track sure was in terrible shape.

            Ponzi scheme

            noun
            a form of fraud in which belief in the success of a nonexistent enterprise is fostered by the payment of quick returns to the first investors from money invested by later investors.

            Would you also like to break the news that Earl Baltes' Mopar Million didn't pay $1,000,000 to win either?

                  I really can't understand all of this talk about Earl needing purse paid for him to be able to have the MILLION race. And yes JW Hunt and others did pay into the purse.

                  But the facts are that he charges $87 a head for reserved and $85 for general admission. With that being true then if only 15 thousand fans were there for this sellout, that would come to 1.3 million dollars there alone plus a few hundred thousand more from pits, vending space rentals, concessions, and all the rest of the incomes.

                    I think when Moran won it taxes were almost 50%

                        The Dirt Million name was a little misleading, at first, until the details were announced. The goal was to get the total purse to one million dollars, not the pay to win. I don't think they'll get close to that. But a $200k to win and $3,500 to start purse isn't anything to sneeze at.
                        Some come on here and cry about promoters not promoting and this guy is doing just that promoting this event. I don't think he has ever said the race paid 1 million to win and your right that is nothing to sneeze at.

                              You two idiots don’t realize I’m talking about ptown? Jesus, who needs drug tested now? If it ain’t negative or complaining about Bobby, he don’t post. But I guess y’all got the Voodoo Child on your brain.#sad

                                $610,000 is what he cleared.
