I did...I also said I would quit jacking off as a teenager HMMMM

Either way...ya got me on this one.


Nothing wrong with it, ya'll had a miscommunication. It happens a lot on the net.

It's not like the guy cheated you, then told ya too bad sucker, move on, I can do whatever I want.

Under those circumstances, I'd hope you wouldn't go back.

But ya'll just had a miscommunication on the net, no big deal.

I'd have went back too, were I you.

I do not think many would be complaining if they were winners for 350 k. Look at it anyway you want it is good pay for a day of bracket racing. Beats the he11 out of pushing 2x4's and osb all day for .1% of that. Not LOL

I'm sure there are some pretty happy people.That is still a very good payout.

I'm just confused as to why it said "Guaranteed" on a Facebook post?

With the price of fuel and the current state of the economy, I'm still surprised there were that many entries.

I just feel like you attracted your customers with a”guaranteed “ payout . just not a good look for the series at the end the day.

I can’t believe how many people are coming to Kyle’s defense on this. It’s mind boggling. It’s just yet another example of continued reckless behavior and reason #? I’ll continue to “pay more and race for less” with other promoters/series’.

Maybe it's not about the defense of any particular person, place or thing.

Maybe it's merely coming to terms with the Liberal World Order we're all being subjected to.

Maybe it's a rational approach to reality.

Your guy gonna have the same type of problems.

Whatcha gonna do bad boy, when they come for your racing payout?

I’ve said it before, this guy is the PT Barnum of drag racing, no one does the hustle as good as him.

That said, he’ll never see a dollar of my money.

Minimum, best case scenerio. How many years do we have left with the Liberal world Order?

2 years? It's gonna get all promoters, you'll be criticizing them all by the time it's all said and done $10 gallon.

Clown world has the power, I don't see em going down in two years.

They'll rig it again and ignore the overwhelming Evidence they rigged it.

Don't cry about clown world when you're one of the clowns.

Flyer also doesn’t specify purses are based on a particular car count. Razz

I am not sure about payout on this race. Sounds like payout may have been cut due to car count? Fine rules should state so.

I will say this there was a track around here (Now out of business) That would post a flyer say $X,000 to Win guaranteed payout, No buybacks or double entries. Then we get there they have Double entries and after first round they announce BuyBack booth is open and we never knew what payout was going to be. I always did good there but hated that they were never good for their word and probably much to do with why they are out of business now. They also did some stuff on races about points after buybacks. Same with points I do not care how they do them just state the rules and stick with them. They would also have a "Quick 16" and if they got 41 cars or what ever they would run them but keep same payout?????

Does not matter much what the rules or payout is post it and stand by it.
Then we will make the decision where to race based on what we want to do. We will race at track that offers best program for our needs.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.
