        There should be no entry fee for a $3K race and if this is true this series won't last long. BoB should work their profit through the promotors.

          $100 entry fee is pretty standard for regional shows. No matter if it's 3k or 10k to win.

            This is a FASTRAk deal. That's how they operate. Ultimate has always had that kind of entry fee.

                You must be joking!!!!!! Because that clearly isn't the case.

                If nobody charged an entry fee..... None of these series would exist.

                    Kind of sounds like you are in agreement with the fee Husker! I never could figure out how a promoter can charge the people who put on the show. This is a problem that needs addressed.

                      The problem with your argument is the promoter/track doesn't get the entry fee...... The series does.

                      They've been charging entry fees since like the beginning of racing.

                        You don't even know what's going in your head. I highly doubt just because you live in UMP territory that gives you a one up in that department.

                            There's a difference between a weekly show and regional tour show...... And some of your STL boys are headed to Wheatland for the MLRA show. Must not bother them too bad.
