      Crowd was good. My only problem was the camping they didn't do a good job parking people. People were marking off bigger spots then what they paid for in Lot A. Reminded me of old Eldora before they went reserve camping. That was my only complaint of the weekend besides that the racing was a lot better then it has been in the past.

              Walked the track after races Saturday night. That thing was loaded with rocks all over the surface. Don't think I will be back, unless they really improve on some things.

                  The money ticker started back around late February / March. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe was something like 26 weeks ago.

                    I would say it will keep going as long as you keep sending money in for the purse.

                      Just like every other race ever ran in the history of races.
                      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        Been baffled by people’s reactions to the accumulated purse idea from the get go. It was posted in black and white, everyone knew the program in advance. Promoter has brought two of the freshest ideas to dirt racing in a long time. My mind he deserves an attaboy for creativity and thinking outside the box. Did he learn from this first event and will seek to improve going forward? Have to think he did unless he is a one trick pony.
                        I hate time trials.

                          Exactly, I'm sure all the tracks around the country depend on the fans to pay the majority of the purse, all these people bashing this guy from trying something new are idiots crying about the name the payout and whatever else you can drag out to put him and the event down. Does he need to improve it yes he does but what doesn't need to be fixed after the first try?

                            I predict there will be several "Million" races next season. All the keyboard promoters will be stepping up and buying or leasing their favorite tracks all over the country and running their own events. Might even be able to start a new series of these event called the Million Series.

                              Could say that the same for the World 100. If fans stopped paying the purse for it that race would end as well.
