      Payout is only going to carry so far for so long when you run a horrible event. I've heard nothing but horror stories about this event for the past several years. Drivers are only going to put up with that for so long.

      Heard a few drivers say this year was better so maybe they're on the way to getting it turned around. Isn't someone different/new running/promoting the joint this year?

        The best driver in the country had no issues taking 20k home with him. Has to be more to it than that.

            Big deal. Plenty of other capable drivers within a 5 to 6hr haul that chose to stay home. Its just sad honestly.

                  It was the dirtiest move this race has seen since Parker Martin did Parker Martin things last year.

                    The National 100 epitomizes all that is wrong with race management. It’s a sh!tshow most every year. I think they only ran 10 support classes this year, so there’s your improvement.

                      From what I saw on the video it looked like the 44 car was bouncing off of anything close to him. And the run in with the 10 car was bush league for sure. Guess he had it in for the 10 because he flat plowed him and should have been parked for that move! Jmo
