I would think its going to get a lot worse with that hurricane coming into NC/SC too. DTWC in jeopardy?

I was wondering the same thing, obviously I'm not from the area but how long does it usually take PRP to drain after flooding like that? On top of repairs maybe? I wonder if we hear an announcement about the DTWC soon?

I think it was last year they got flooded 2 weeks before opening night, and had it ready to go when the time came. As long as we don't get dumped on again like we did last week, I dont think it'll be a problem.

One could only hope the DTWC gets moved to a new location. I’m still baffled how the DTWC general admission cost more than the World 100 reserved tickets

This would be my guess

The DTWC top 5 payout is $142k

The World top 5 payout is $101,250

That extra $42k just for the top 5 has to help come somewhere.

Well, that clears that up. And with less than half the crowd the Big E has to boot.

Seating capacity is less than half of Eldora’s. Not real hard to figure out.

That's not on the race track. It wouldn't matter if it was at pennsboro or wherever, the prices would be the same. I'm not a prp homer by any means at all. But they're probably the fairest priced race track in the area.

zac you are spot on about Portsmouth. I've been there 2-3 times for 5k races and only been charged $12. I thanked donna on the way in. now the racing surface that's another story.

It’s also $49,000 more just to win than the World 100...

^^^what???

[Josh Bayko]

^^^what???

World pays 51k to win, DTWC pays 100k.

[MI Dirt Fan]

The win amount was calculated in the top 5 totals.

[Josh Bayko]

The win amount was calculated in the top 5 totals.

And it explains why the DTWC's top five payout is higher than the World's.

But the real reason why the DTWC admission is higher than the World's is seating capacity.
