Race XR

[riddle28]

whats everyones thoughts on them? Im not sure how sustainable their business model is with their payouts but its nice to see their series or whatever you wanna call it come about this year. Also, nice to see DoD/Flo have some competition on their streaming/mini series, competition makes everyone better

Anyone who is a student of the dirt late model "landscape" totally understands that what Race XR is doing is very bad for generic dirt late model racing, and more specifically Eldora Speedway. All competent students of the "landscape" know this is bad, even though no monetary risk is at stake!!

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

It completely depends on your position in the sport as to whether XR is bad or not. If you are a racer, more funds available to win is never bad. If you are a track or sanction set to lose business, you view it as bad. It's a zero sum game. People win and people lose.

I dont really know the extent of Speedway Motorsports involvement.........but if they significantly own the major portion, it will work out just fine. Bunch of smart folks run that operation!

[dirtcrazy4u]

Speedway motors is not in the business of losing money. I don't see how with the purses being offered there going to be around for the long haul.

[ZERO25]

Its pretty obvious these live streamed events are very profitable!

So much so, I bet the purses are subsidized through them!

Will be interesting to see what drivers follows this durning the 2022 season.

WoO events that overlap XR events: Both Bristol weekends, 1 night at Stuart, and Texas weekend.

Lucas only overlaps the Texas weekend.

It should be interesting to see how that plays into what drivers choose to follow XR and WoO because they will have to make a decision in March. Lucas drivers can do both until September before making a decision.

Man they need to move the Texas dates. It would be cool if a Lucas guy went to both series full time like a Davenport, Owens, or Mccreadie

When you have 5-8 classes at these events, the PPV $$$ alone more than pays for the purse.

I think it's great.

Careful, you'll hurt some fragile feelings if you're not careful!

Nobody's fragile dude. If anyone, it's you. You're still crying about this more than a month later. Carry on cry baby.

[thexfactor0210]

I think it is very cool they are going to venues that don’t host any or not a ton of Super racing. It makes it interesting.

Okay dude. LOL!!

It's clear by your swift and decisive reaction that delicate nerve has been struck yet again (smiling).

Possibly gazing longingly dreamy eyed at your Eldora ticket stubs or maybe put on a video replay of a past World Hundred while bringing yourself up to the moment on the all important dirt late model landscape will help you to forget about me getting under your thin skin! LOLOL!
