[dirtcrazy4u]

WRG really wants to put Lucas up against fence. Kinda like that 32 car and a bad slide job.

What does world racing group have to do with anything going on in this post?

It will be hard for Lucas guys to race fairbury now. There like 7-8 hours apart

Last year I saw Rocket1 take the exit for I-80 Speedway a mere 9 hours after their win at Fairbury. It’s not out of question to run both for some teams.

Yes, some guys will skip I-80, some guys will skip Fairbury. It’s nothing new when you have that much racing in a short amount of time.

Best payout ever for last place at 5,300 the only close to this is when west plains paid 3,000 for last.

$5300 to start is impressive.

So who is TowerView?

10-4... I'm sure he got quite a chuckle at the "bad announcing" thread a few weeks ago.

Its so great to see a track add a ton of money and not just add it to the winners share like everyone else does. Paying $5,300 to start is as impressive as anything outside of the eldora million and Mansfield deal. Thank you thank you thank you to I-80 for that

I’ll be making the journey up from Alabama.

Well, unless I’m wrong, I always thought he was James Essex.

Towards the end I believe West Plains paid $3400-$4400 to start. I think at its highest it was $4400.

There's an answer to provisionals, a non qualifier race were the winner of the losers gets some money. Pay the top three a differing percentage of the provisional starting money and then send them home.

Dlm, wrg owns the late model series, someone has decided with this kind of payout we can go head to head with lucas and there car counts are surely to be on the lower end for the knoxville race. 5300 to start ! Anybody and everybody outside of the lucas regulars are going to be there.

I think what it's going to create is guys are going to start watching what big names like overton, frieson, the 6 car, BP, Shirley and maybe a few more mite do. With the money being offered this year on the SLM side of things I can't say it benefits to follow one series over the other.
