Leave it to Farmer City to make a mess

[CILDirt]

Practice was cancelled tonight because of the rain. So what does FC do? Raise the GA price for Saturday night the day before the races start. It clearly stated $50 for 2 day GA. Now all of the sudden it is $60 for 2 day. Never fails.... always something with that place.

I may be wrong but I believe WOOLMS leases the track for the weekend and they sell/set the ticket prices and call all the shots this weekend. Not the people that run it weekly.

This has nothing to do with Farmer City -- that is WOO.

It will be worth every cent of that.

They should run 100 laps on Saturday for that price. Then it would be the Illini 100 for real not the Illini 75. This was part of the reason why we decided to do the weekend at the end of April with Lucas Oil Series at Pontoon Beach and Macon.

Wait a minute ! So you are saying a 2 day ticket was 50.00. They got rained out on day 1, which then turns it into a 1 day
deal and they raised the price to 60.00 ?

Anyone shows up to pay that, you must be a idiot. WRG at there finest.

No it's still a 2 day show. They was suppose to have practice last night. My question is was they charging fans to watch practice?

Practice getting rained out has nothing to do with the prices. It was free to watch regardless. It’s still a 2 day show. I assume there was a mix up in the first press release and the $50 2 day GA was for if you bought it in advance. I agree I read it and thought I would be paying $50 today as well, but $10 won’t break me.


Bring on the racing.

If 10 bucks is gonna break someone, they should probably stay home. Better yet, get a job

My point exactly.

[RaceEngineer]

My point exactly.

I love it when the price of anything gets hiked at the last minute. Just shows how much money I have and how much I love it. 😒😒

[cjp0354]

I only get to go to about 10-12 weekends a year. They could charge $100 and I’d still be going through the gate. It’s my vice.

WRG leases the track.

[chathamracefan]

I'm guessing just a snafu in promo materials or maybe an advance price. I think a couple years ago it was $50 at the gate for the 2 day deal. I went both days the year it was soooo cold on Saturday night & it was a Saturday/Sunday show due to a Friday rain out. Am going Saturday night. $35 not too out of whack for a $15,000 to win. Especially when some of the summer nats paying $5,000 are getting up to $25 or $30 to get in the door.

I am pretty sure that the $50 two day price was an advance special price only that you could purchase on line. Which I am pretty sure I read. I also did see the advertisement price that you are all talking about now. Hopefully there will be a great crowd for this awesome race. We need to support our race tracks instead of always thinking negative. See you all at the races.
