Just wondering if anyone on here went to the Lucas Oil Series race at Mansfield earlier this year? I was talking with some people at Florence, they said it was very unorganized as far as being able to get into track. If it was unorganized for that race, we may be in trouble for the Dirt Million.

I wont be there, fans should only be expected to buy tickets not help pay the purse. I was at the dirt million, paid $85 and watched donnie moran actually win a million. I cant imagine anyone that saw the mansfield lucas race earlier this year, going or purchasing the ppv.

Doesn't the money from tickets people buy contribute to the purse? Same thing if you were going to a professional sporting event. The money people pay for tickets, concessions and merchandise if they buy anything, a percentage of that goes to paying the players.Originally posted by Bigdirtfan View PostI wont be there, fans should only be expected to buy tickets not help pay the purse.

Thanks for the info. However, I was curious about getting into the track and organization. Some people at Florence were telling me the track would not let people in at the time stated it would. Does anyone else know about that?

Hope he succeeds but I’m going to pass on it. I’ve been to Mansfield twice, they haven’t got their stuff together yet but I hope they turn it around.

Together
If they ain't got it together for a regular Lucas Oil Series race, they may have a bad day a coming with this Dirt Million race!

I was going until I watched the free race this year on DoD... the track is wonderful but the surface itself is AWFUL

Using "million" was probably a poor choice of wording maybe they revise it for the future. But it does currently pay $175+k to win so....

I went to the Lucas race earlier this season and had no trouble at all getting in. I will go to the Dirt Million as the racing at the earlier race wasn't as bad as you all make it out to have been. When you watch on ppv you only get to see what the camera shows you. The battles for position other than the lead were pretty decent. All races that start the fast guys in front promote little passing. I stood on the backstretch and it was a little dusty but I could still see most of the track. I hope it's a sellout and the car count is over 60 and that will hopefully allow this race to continue and grow.

I have no issues with the way the race formed. I’m not going because the racing just hasn’t been very good there and the races have been strung out far too long.

That doesn't have anything to do with what the argument really was about. The argument was about the tickets helping pay the purse not whether or not they can put on a good show.Originally posted by golddirt View PostI'm a dumdass for passing on a race that seems so iffy? Well Einstein, I hope I can say after it's over , I wish I had went but I am not driving 5 hours plus to a place that hasn't proved it can put on a good show.
