XR and Bellville to race against The Dream in 2022 with $25K and $50K shows

[ChrisNunn]

I think the Dream has become a race that you can schedule against, its the race at Eldora that not everyone goes to anymore. Scheduling against the World, used to be taboo, and UMP would basically shut you down for it.

I dont see this as a big deal. Its just more money for a team to win on the weekend. Hopefully a lower funded team gets the big payout, some of those little teams deserve it. Look at Joseph Joiner for example...50K to that team is amazing. Just think if a Tony Jackson, Jr., Mason Oberkramer, Tyler Bruening, Tad Pospisil, or someone like that takes home 50K?

This just means we get two big shows to watch on the big screen

Car counts have declined whether or not a race is scheduled against it. Majority that used to go just to go and say they tried to make the main event are out spent and look for other events.

I think it is awesome to have another 50k race so far away and help some other drivers earn money. This race event will be huge for that community, track, and drivers in the tegion. Say what you want about the XR deal but it cool to add so many high paying events to places that don't normally have late models. The more money for drivers the better IMO

Another thing. If this creates competion and forces Eldora to keep upping there purses then that is a good thing!!!

I agree with that. Could be a very good thing.

Pretty hard to compare Bellville to Eldora for track prep when Bellville hasn't hosted a SLM race in nearly 15 years. Track prep for other divisions is very different.

This is what I'm trying to figure out. Trying to compare apples to oranges isn't an argument. Strange concept.

Race XR is butt hurt and intentionality scheduling against big events because certain tracks wouldn't work with him due to his untrustworthiness.

[thexfactor0210]

Look at racexr.com for their 2022 schedule. HUGE money. Big streaming money and they are putting it back in.

Only if it pays better for second on back also

I never understood bashing people such as Cody Sommer or the people putting on these racexr events. They're the ones putting there money and reputation on the line to hold unique events. If you can do better then start up something yourself.

Also, starting in 2022, all 20 of these events will be officially sanctioned as XRSS races with a newly established rulebook and a full-time, in-house technical inspection team.


How different is the rule book gonna be? could be a good thing or make it worst

Ummm, they already have been.

The problem isn’t that he’s creating big events. I’m good with more drivers making money, they need it. The problem is since day 1 he’s deliberately stepping on people toes, trying to create issues.
